I have an 89 YJ, 4cyl. The water pump busted last week, replaced it. and it was running crappy. Found too much radiator fluid had clogged the Cat.Converter. Also there was a 13 year old recall on my Jeep for the Oxygen Sensor. So I got all of that replaced including new distributor cap, rotor, plugs, and an oil change. Now the Jeep idles at 2000 rpm, sputtering, and when I cut it off, the converter is glowing red, and EXTREMELY hot! I know that there is too much fuel getting in. When I'm at high rpms while I'm driving and try to use engine breaking, I notice that there isn't much vacuum to slow me down.
Can any of you technically inclined Jeeperz help me? Is it my fuel injection? Fuel Pump? I did check the vacuum on the PCV valve and it has suction. HELP!! I don't want to have to take it to the dealership to look at it, but it's my 'to work and back' vehicle as well as my toy. Thanks in advance.
