Ok, I'm having a really weird problem that REALLY sucks.
I have a 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limted (5.2L V8) and if I dont keep my foot on the gas the RPMs immediately drop to zero and the whole car dies. At first it did this once in a while and I was able to fix it by disconnecting the battery and it seemed to run fine for a while. As time has gone on (started about 2 months ago) this problem is an everyday occurence. Sometimes it will start and run fine, but by the time I get to where I am going, it is back.
I've never encountered anything like this before. I literally have to drive with both feet snd brake while applying as little gas as possible.
I know next to nothing about cars and this beast has 151,200 miles on it. Ran perfectly until this started about two months ago.
Any ideas? Is this going to be big bucks?
