I'm chasing a low power and fuel economy issue on my '04 Wrangler with a 155,xxx mile 4.0L inline six. On hot startup, it will stumble and stutter for several seconds before smoothing out, but overall power is way way down and fuel economy has gone right with it. No CEL and no stored codes according to the cheap OBD-II scan tool I have. I replaced the air filter, cleaned the throttle body, and checked the plugs and found them all to be in extremely good shape.
I have ordered a wireless dongle and am currently downloading the Torque Pro app for my iPhone, so as soon as the dongle arrives I should be able to see live sensor data. Some interweb research seems to indicate this problem could be related to one or more malfunctioning oxygen sensors, but I'm not about to drop $80+/- each on guessing... So here's the question: if I can view live data for the 02 sensors, what exactly am I looking for in terms of values? Are there certain RPM or engine temp ranges I should be specifically looking at?
