I have a 2001 grand cherokee 4.0 6 cly automatic I had the motor rebuilt 2 yrs ago now after it warm's up I get a chack engine light on saying that it's misfireing on 1, 3, 5, 6 cyl's and it is.I checked the plug's there ok. Ireset the computer I just found out when you kick it into overdrive it kicks down but like there's no gas or spark like it shut off but if you let off the gas a little it run's. Could it be the computer?
