I gotta take out a loan to use words like portmanteau. (I work with simpletons.)
I was wondering that myself about the YJs... been seeing a few really nice ones for sale lately... guess I'm YJ-curious.

When accelerating from a full stop, I hear a quick whistling/squealing noise that simply goes away after a second. It seems to be coming from the rear, but I could be wrong. If I accelerate slowly enough, I don't hear anything.
I have shot shocks in the rear, so that was my first thought and I'm changing them soon enough, but I'm not hitting any bumps, so I'm looking for other possible ideas.
Also, my fan only works on high. I figured to resistor needs to be changed, but now it stopped working from time to time (trying to start it, won't work, try again right away and it works). Would the resistor cause this issue too or it's something else (switch, etc)?
Thanks!

Just bought my first cherokee yesterday. I was driving it home and it just shut off almost like it was out of gas, But it was full. It is getting fuel and spark. The guy said its never happened to him before but idk if he is telling the truth. Please help. Btw I am no mechanic. So help is very much needed.

What does it do when you try to start it?

1995 cherokee sport, 4.0L inline 6 with automatic transmission. It sounds like it is about to crank but it just doesn't. And after we wait about 30-45 minutes it cranks up and runs for another 45 or so minutes
