In the future, when buying a used vehicle, take it to any certified dealership that specializes in the vehicle you are working on buying. Get an oil change and usually most dealerships will give you a 27point, ( or whatever point ) inspection on the vehicle for free. They do this for free because they want to make "up-sales" which generates enough money to cover the inspection. They will give you a sheet upon completion with all details of things in need.(brakes, oil leaks, torn boots, belts, wipers, and other problems) I would call around and ask first if they would do a free inspection first. I would advise to act like you own the vehicle so you aren't wasting their time, and just tell them you will schedule an appointment later for the necessary repairs.

Hi,
The Jeep Cherokee Sport has built in diagnostics that indicate any problem detected. There is no diagnostics than can predict future failures, or possible failures.
I have a 94 Cherokee Sport, and I have, believe it or not, over 400,000 miles on it, and still runs great. The inline 6 is a workhorse, and a lot of the big truck diesels are inline 6's.
I have replaced an alternator, and a coil, but other than that, I wouldn't trade it for anything. I deliver new RV Motor homes from the factory's to the dealerships, and I tow my jeep behind me. When I deliver the RV, I unhook and drive to my next pickup, or back home.
You can rest assured, you can count on your Jeep Cherokee Sport, it won't let you down.
Enjoy your Jeep,
Darryl S.

The last answer you received has some good advice in it although it might be a little complicated for someone not familiar with electrical systems on vehicles.There is one more train of thought,it seems temperature related,it could be the engine coolant temperature sensor that is giving you problems and these sensors are over looked all to frequently.Diagnostics for this sensor requires the use of a scan tool,with a scan tool attached and reading sensor output voltages,engine can be hot or cold for this test,disconnect coolant sensor,scan tool will read minus 40degsF now put a jumper across the two terminals of the connector it should read 460degs or there abouts if the readings are within specs then coolant temp sensor is faulty,if readings are way out of expected range then the problem is with the computer. Sincerely hope this is of some assistance to you.

a used car service chack at most decent auto repair shops can tell you almost everything you will want to know about a used car.
