Your car cold start valve puts more gas into the system keeping your engine running higher RPM. When you car warms up, the cold start valve will stop working and your car RPM will drop. What you could have is a vacuum hose disconnected which puts more air into your engine - therefore when you press on the gas pedal, your engine would shut off or you find lack of power and then shut off.
If it dropped below freezing, you may have water freezing solid somewhere in the fuel system; try a bottle or two of "Dry Gas" and while the vehicle is running, it should mix with the water and get it out of the system!
no year, wow.!
sounds like gross loss of engine power
or
you started car and didnt notice RPM was 400 rpm.
the engine has almost no power at that rpm.
the normal cold start (winter) is about 1500 RPM.
if not at fast idle fix bad fast idle (Bad IAC)
when i say bad IAC that means the system IAC is bad,not just a part.
the IAC /ISC controls idle at all times, via ECU commands.
i would take a good look at the fuelpump, this sounds like its loosing preasure at times,you said the dealer looked at it so i guess there are no codes stored in memory of the computer,i would take a shot and replace the fuel pump,
Check belt tension, squeeling is most likely due to belt slippage. Have you noticed any fluid leaking from under your Jeep? Coolant level drop could be from bad water pump, when the pump needs replacing, water flows out of a "weep hole". It could be leaking onto your belt also, causing it to squeel
a misfiring engine wont have enough power to sustain a load thats why when you shift it dies.you need to retify the problem first.check for any presence of water in the diesel fuel.Not enough fuel pressure
you need to get the charging system and battery tested. Most places charge about $40 for this service. Only takes a few minutes to complete but it will be money well spent. Then you can do the replacement parts yourself if you inclined.
