Hey guys, I have a 92 Cherokee that keeps quiting , but as soon as it quits you wait a few min. and it will start right back up. I was thinking the cam censor or something. The problem I have is that I took it to be diagnosed and they couldn't find the plug for it........WHERE IS IT SUPPOSED TO BE ? Could anyone tell me? Thanks

The Crank position sensor is on the drivers side top bellhousing. Follow the wires from there. It could be on top of the intake manifold or I have heard of some over on the passenger side firewall.
Usually the plug and socket just needs a clean. A spray contact cleaner is best, but WD40 will work in a pinch.
The cam position sensor's plug and socket are down near the distributor. Same deal goes on the cleaning.

OBDII standards were not mandated till 96 model year. As another replied take it somewhere that has the equipment for your jeep.
