So about a week ago my trucks pcv line popped out and got burnt on the manifold. Sigh, but I jerryrigged it together and its held up exceptionally well, until now (I think) So I turned out onto the road and the truck stays in first, cuts my throttle and starts backfiring like crazy, like I had 2 step or something. I quickly pulled off, and turned off the truck. After turning it back on it had no problems, until I got to a stop light, where it just died. I turned it back on and tried to limp it back to school (I was on lunch) and it wanted to die every single stop, it got to the point where I put it in neutral and looked like a dummy revving my truck at a light to keep it on. Well after I made it back, I turned it off, and quickly inspected it. My PCV is still good, everything looks A-OK. I turned it on and it didnt try to die even in gear. I had to go to class which is were I'm at now and I'm at a loss for ideas.

Hello. I recently acquired a 1988 Jeep Comanche 4X4 4.0 Automatic. My truck stalls but not in Neutral. The truck will want to cut-off when I drive, but will not if I am pressing the gas pedal. It will just cut out if I am coasting down the road. The truck never seems to even threaten to stall when it is in neutral. In fact, sometimes when I can feel a stall coming on (or I can anticipate a cut-out) I throw it into neutral and the truck keeps running. I have read several dozen of posts here and I know it could be anything that I am willing to throw $$$ into replacing. I am have done all the work myself: tune-up, fuel filter, cleaned the throttle body, cleaned one ground on the firewall. I am not the greatest of mechanics, but I do love this truck. I would also love to drive this truck without worry of an accident from a stall. I am hoping this neutral observation will help identify the issue, as it is somewhat unique to what I have seen posted from other CC users. Thanks very much.
