Roll Me Over
after layover, hop in and she fires right up. after running for about 5 minutes she just dies and hasnt started since. cranks and cranks but wont start. found a bad wire (purple with a while stripe) going into the pcm, fixed it and still no start. all other electrical connections seem to be ok. the instrument panel does nothing. fuel doesnt register, temp didnt register (after it died), no voltage and rpm guage doesnt move when trying to start. pcm fried? something is telling the engine not to start. i couldnt check to see i was getting power to the coil, needed another set of hands. tia in advance.

Need a Spot
Hi, I am Bart from the Netherlands. I have a 91 Wrangler and experienced something like you. It came out to be a bad central computer. After changing it everything went OK. Took a lot of work to find out, nothing helped in the beginning. Take a computer from another Jeep of the same model and see if it works. Succes.
