So I was told the only way to fix this issue is to do an engine swap or rebuild mine but I wanted to see if anyone on here had any other ideas as to what the problem could be if its something i could fix without having to rebuild the entire engine..
Last month my check engine light went on and the code said random misfire so I got a tune-up for that and while that was being done the mechanic that did it said the spark plugs that were on the jeep were the wrong type so he put better quality ones on. He also noticed that it was idling rough whenever I started the car up to about 2000 rpms and then finally would drop back down to 1000. He ended up doing a compression test on her, I have a 4.0 6 cylinder 1999 tj and the readings were
cyl 1. 132 psi
cyl 2. 175 psi
cyl 3. 157 psi
cyl 4. 180 psi
cyl 5. 173 psi
cyl 6. 180 psi
She ran good for awhile and then the check engine light went on and it said cylinders 1 and 3, he reset something and the light went off but went on again about 200 miles later it doesn't feel like it runs choppy or anything.
If anyone has any ideas on something I can do that wouldn't involve completely rebuilding the engine or swapping it out I would appreciate suggestions!
