Could be the P0445 - Evaporative Emission Control System Purge Control Valve Circuit Shorted
The EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve uses a ON/OFF duty to control the flow rate of fuel vapor from the EVAP canister. The EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve is moved by ON/OFF pulses from the ECM. The longer the ON pulse, the greater the amount of fuel vapor that will flow through the valve.

Symptoms
- Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)

Possible causes
- Damage harness or connectors to the Purge Control Valve
- The valve circuit is open or shorted
- EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve may be faulty

When is the code detected?
- An excessively high voltage signal is sent to ECM through the valve

Try to remember this code number for additional details. Hope this helps, keep us updated.

Check your battery charge level, fluid level (if possible), cable connections and cable condition. Lights, radio, and other accessories draw MUCH less than the starter, so they will often work even when the battery is too low to spin the starter. Corroded connections and/or frayed or loose cables will not let enough current pass to spin the starter.

check and change fuel filter

how old is the fuel - is there any contaminants or other blockages in there?
How about the fuel filter?
Best regards

If you have lights on dash lit, I would have OBII scan done (fault scan) Autozone, Advance, etc.. do that for free. Scan would show faults tracked by your computer. Since you just purchased, I would be seriously considering a "healthy" tune-up (plugs, wires, all fluids & filters including FUEL filter) this would give you a good "ground zero" starting point with you new rig.

well, this ones up to you. it sounds like the rings are bad. maybe you can buy another engine for what the mechanic wants to fix it. get some prices from a local junk yard, for a low milage engine in ok running condition. then find a friend or some one to put engine in it. at a reasonable cost. have a good day ! SORRY !

you will not get any gas going through line to get any crank.

see all indicator bulbs it only happens when one or more of the signal bulb fails to work

up under the dash by the steerins columnon the right of it take the plate off below the column for a easier access

I dont know if you have CV joints or U joints on that year but I worked on one last spring with CV joints. Had a REAL bad wobble. Found that one of the 3 ears inside the shaft end behind the drivers wheel had broken off yet the boot was intact. As the jeep moves it caused a major bind in the axle. The front end would literaly move up and down 3-4 inches at just idling along. I can imagine similar issues with U joint. Good luck.

this is jeep the check valve in the fuel pump will not hold presser and sometimes you have to cycle the key to pump up the pressure to start

Hi, if you just changing filter and fuild it holds 4Qt of atf+4 transmission fluid.If transmission been replace it holds 8.8Qt. If you need further help just re post.
Thanks dodge tec

Yes, the majority of vehicles can be started and then the battery completely removed from the vehicle and continue to run. If your Jeep dies and then wont restart (or is hesitant) because of a dead battery, this would most likely be the alternator connections, or event he alternator itself. Obviously the alternator is not supplying current to the vehicle. Most autopart stores can check the alternator for you, often free of charge and the easiest placed to start.

The sound that you are describing is most often associated with U-Joints. Check them for play first.

sounds like you have a rod bearing knocking. does it do it when it in park and rev the engine an hold it at a steady rpm like around 3000rpm do you hear the tak tak tak tak now?

Check the fuel pressure. The fuel pump may have become damaged from no fuel to lubricate it and cool in while it was running.

you can buy a repair manual at a parts store like a haynes or chiltons i like the haynes better it hase not detailed steps and better pictures they run around 20 to 40 bucks but will help out alot.
