Jeep just dies on it's own

This isn't the first problem I've had out of my wrangler and it probly won't be the last but here's the jist of what's happening.

refer to http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/t749150.html for the last problem (oxygen sensor issues) I believe that this is fixed now, but I've stopped driving because of this new issue.

After finding 2 vacuum leaks and replacing the hoses for it I drove down the highway to see if I could get the 'check engine' light to come back on. But along the way there are stop lights. When I take it out of gear and stop, the vehicle boggs down then dies. :runaround: any ideas?

Even when I do fix the jeep, it's not going to be a primary driving vehicle, only rec.:grinyes:

Thanx a bunch ppl

I read your other thread, and what comes to mind is plugs, cap, rotor, and plug wires. You might also want to clean the intake manifold. These are the simplest things that can cause difficulties. My 97 Wrangler ran like crap, and that was cleared up by doing all the above.
