Rough idle
Just did tune up, cap, rotor, plugs and wires and I still have a rough idle while at a stop in drive. Idle is at a steady 750 but feels rough in jeep.

Clean your throttle body. Put on a new throttle body gasket.
Clean your IAC. Disconnect it from throttle body, scrub it with an old toothbrush and some carb cleaner.
Consider replacing your upstream o2 sensor with a quality NTK brand sensor from rockauto.com.
Check to see if your exhaust manifold is cracked. That can cause a rough idle.
