Went out and tried to start, same thing pop studder bang. Took shrader valve off fuel rail and hooked up pressure gauge and started up and ran fine. Fuel pressure is only 32 lbs. Reading Haynes now. Must be fuel pump.

My jeep has bamboozled me. Fuel pump checked out perfectly. 32 lbs running, 40 lbs with vacuum line disconnected from pressure regulator. Just took it around the block and it ran perfect. Will drive it all day today for wherever I have to go. If it still runs I'm goin tomorrow.
The only thing I notice is the shrader valve was slightly loose before I pulled it but still holding all the fuel. Maybe from being low on gas I sucked up some junk and by purging it via shrader valve I cleared it up? Sometimes the worst problems are the ones that fix itself cause you never know what actually caused it.
