I'm no mechanic and this 4 cyl. 2.4 L 2003 wrangler has some ghosts, so it should be a fun project. I just towed it back to Salt Lake from the desert where a small shop and dealer both looked at it shortly without figuring it out. Any input is much appreciated :) Symptoms... 1) Won't start...

Filled up with fuel 2 weeks ago and when I left my Jeep stalled out. Restarted and the CEL was lit and the engine was misfiring. I assumed it was water in the fuel and added HEET, but that did not help. Replaced the coil pack, spark plug wires, and spark plugs the next day, and still had the...
