- 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Stalling Problem - comments and suggestions on problem and fix

Check the string for the same problem on the 1997 model, especially #6 by jhartgc. Lots of helpful info there. I had the same problem on my '98, tried all the usual fixes, crankshaft positioning sensor, ignition coil, etc., but the fix by jhartgc "pretty much" solved the problem. When it started to hiccup and occasionally stall again, as well as retightening the bracket, I also blew the connectors clean with compressed air and sprayed them with WD40... no problems for about 6 weeks. Then I found a more permanent solution by blowing my head gasket, so it's off to the junk yard and no more stalling problem!
