problem #1

Jan 242000

(reported on)

Cherokee 4WD

  • miles
Engine check engine lite came on at around 600 miles, was knocked off by the service manager. Went on again at 934 miles and spark plugs were replaced. Went on again and was flashing. Service dept. Can not seem to pin point problem. A idle part is being ordered. They seem to think it is idling to slow. I am afraid more problems will be caused by this hit and miss method. Is it a problem to have the lite keep coming on?
