My 1966 Jeep grand cherokee starts and ideals fine when I press on gas paddle and then left off of it it dies

two possible problems come to mind,,,
1.) idle air control valve (IAC) is restricted
2.) throttle position sensor is out of adjustment

to test the IAC, find a vacuum hose smaller than the size of a golf tee anywhere near the throttle body and unplug it....then start the vehicle. if the vehicle idles then replace theIAC

if this doesn't help see a technician that can diagnose the concern further and look at things like fuel trims, MAF values and BARO

1997 jeep grand cherokee. low idle 500 rpm, runs fine but letting off the throttle it dies. starts right back up fine.

Most of the time an engine is supposed to idle at 5-600 RPM in Driveif it's not you can up the idle. But you also may have a vaccume leak.

Jeep dies when I try to shift. manual transmission, 4.0, 4wd. Jeep won't start when clutch is engaged and it dies when clutch is engaged. Reverse lights work, it will start and run if I start it in gear-...

You have a wire shorting out when you press the clutch. You will need to have help looking for it. Have someone set inside and press the clutch and look for a wire that is coming into contact with the linkage. Good Luck.

98 jeep grand cherokee limited 4.0 litre. starts up, during warm up process engine will idle irradically and stall out. starts back up and does the same thing. no check engine light on. cleanrd throttle...

Does this thing have a throttle body that looks like a computer-controlled carburetor?

If so, start motor and verify that it behaves irratically and then stalls.

then, spray WD-40 liberally around base of throttle body where tb meets intake manifold.

Start motor...

Does the problem go away, at least whilst for a little while?

Yes?

You gotta vacuum leak. Replace gasket under TB and tighten bolts to factory spec.
