creep_in_the_jeep Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 i have a 88 jeep comanche 4x4 with the 4.0 automatic and i filled the gas tank full till the nozzel kicked off i was driving back to work and it just died. tried restarting it and couldnt get it to fire but when i pushed it into a parking lot i tried it again and it fired and runs fine i looked at the wires and ect to the pump and it seems like fuel is splashing out from around the pump and seal. could it be too full and that caused it to die? help please don't want it to do it again thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onlyinajeep726 Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 That random stalling sounds more like the CPS. Over filling a gas tank, which I'm not convinced it is anyway, shouldn't cause an engine to stall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your CPS can be tested. Click on the link below and go to Tip 7. Since it's an 88, I would complete Tips 1 through 5 thoroughly before doing anything else.

creep_in_the_jeep Posted November 18, 2015 Author Share Posted November 18, 2015 i found the problem the nipple or adapter on the fuel pump broke off but now i can't find just the fuel pump assembly. ive checked everywhere does anyone know what i can do? i also heard that the tank out of a 88 dakota will fit in it that way you can find a pump easier is that true? also i heard that the fuel pump in the 4.0 fuel injected has a high pressure fuel pump? thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
