also it did run well initially after sitting, and at one stage was pulling just over 8 k's per litre. Everything it has been doing seems to vary. eg when the computer was reset the first few times it cleared right up and went like a train. Now that the mis has settled in, although now less with the new cps as mentioned above.
feels lumpy also, surgy.
maybe a faulty MAP?
or maybe its the main computer playing up.
Update:-
Jeep is now running well, no miss, have to check economy at next fill up so fingers crossed, sems like it may have been the CPS, missed for a bit afer install, and now seems to be good.

Thanks for advice from fellow Jeep owners.
