well CPS tested good, but I swapped it out anyway, same issue with both CPS,so I would say that rules out the CPS. So that really only leaves fuel delivery, but how does low fuel delivery cause a smell of raw fuel?

the sucker finally through a code, Ignition coil, in fact about 20 mins after my last post the Jeep just died and would not start, new coil is in and it seems to have done the trick... I wonder why it would not throw a code before?
