This might be a long shot. I have posted this on other boards.
But...
Are there any gear heads or people work on cars in here?
I have a winter vehicle that is a four wheel drive 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
6 cylinder engine.
Here is what we are looking at basically....

I was going down the road the other day and the vehicle starts sputtering and gagging and finally it comes to a stop. Trying to start it several times I come to the conclusion that everything is working fine and after trials and errors I have come to the conclusion something is keeping my fuel from getting to the main deal.
So. Two options. Either a fuel filter or a fuel pump. After close examination I find out that the fuel filter is built into the fuel pump. So, I am going to have to replace the whole fuel pump. Drop the gas tank and all.
Before I do this, is there any other ideas before I spend a whole day laying in my driveway? It is supposed to be up to 40 degrees, so I don't feel the cold weather is going to be a factor. I have a nice house with a garage I can pull it in if it gets to obnoxious.
So, besides not looking forward to this, I just wanted to know if there was any gear heads on this board. Since this is the "General Buzz" I figured I might give it a shot.
Someone talk to me.
Thanks.
