well this jeep has been randomly running like poop for about a month now i hope i found the problem, any under condition it will either stall out and smell like its flooded with fuel or backfire really loud and blow my muffler apart. so i took it to auto-zone had them hook up there scanner, they say o2 sensor, coil, and map sensor, i replace all that and the distributor cap and plugs at the same time still no go took it today had it hooked up to a 5,000 scanner says everything is good. have no check engine light, my buddy at a local garage told me pull it in and pull the distributor cap off, i did so and he grabbed the shaft coming out of the distributor and it has a great amount of play, he said the coil pickup also looks to be in bad shape.. Now i can fabricate paint and all that but with mechanical/ electrical things i am not good at all with it.. Anyone have money on it being the distributor being bad for it running like this? I know there's a spot to put this instead of on my build thred but if it keeps running like crap i am going to park my stinger into the side of a building
