1998 stalling....won't start without giving it gas.
Ok...here is where we are:
First: 98 2 door XJ 4.0 AX15 4WD NP 231...all stock but with neon injectors. 220k miles
I have had issues with the cooling system recently.
New radiator, new upper and lower hoses, new thermostat, new waterpump, new rear freeze plug...
As of last night, Jeep ran fine. I had the lower hose blow out on the highway, got a tow home, and fixed that, and it ran well going out to dinner and a few stores last night.
Go to go out today....it stalls upon starting. Will NOT stay running. to restart it, I have to give it gas...and if I keep my foot on the gas it will keep running.
No codes.
Ok...let's start the suggestions.
Thanks!

turned out to be the IAC...I am thinking that the antifreeze that flew all over burned up on it cause the old one was all kinds of gummy and their was a little coolant in the airbox.
She is back on the road again!
Yeesh....
