I'VE SEEN YOUR QUESTION SITTING A WHILE

I MAY NOT BE OF MUCH HELP...IMMA JEEP CJ KINDA GUY AND ANSWER THEM WITH CONFIDENCE

1ST THING THAT ANYONE HERE WOULD SAY IS, GET IT CHECKED FOR CODES---THIS USUALLY CAN BE DONE AT A POPULAR AUTO PARTS STORE WILL DO IT FOR FREE

THEY MAY EVEN OFFER SUGGESTIONS ON WHAT IT COULD BE

NEVER THE LESS---COPY DOWN THE EXACT CODE NUMBERS (NOT THEIR SUGGESTIONS) CODES CAN SOMETIMES BE INTERPRETED DIFFERENTLY DEPENDING ON WHAT THEY ARE.

EVEN THOUGH I MAY NOT BE YOUR HELP---OTHER FELLERS HERE ARE GOOD ABOUT JUMPING IN AND OFFERING ASSISTANCE

SO WHEN YOU RETURN--HAVE YOUR CODES--ANYTHING YOU HAVE DONE--ANYTHING YOU LEFT OUT (SYMPTOMS AND FACTORS LEADING INTO THIS)

IF NO ONE JUMPS IN, I'LL FIND SOMEBODY
