Which engine do you have the 3.7 or 4.0 the 3.7 has a coil for each plug it would be on top of engine you will have to unplug one of them and check the ohms should be between 250-1000 and also check to see if you are getting fuel pressure should be 39-41 psi also check compression it should be 120-150 psi normal, 100 psi min, 30 psi max. Variation between cylenders
