Ok. I give up. I thought i had this licked up apparently not. Some basics:
Engine:
4.8L 505 Performance stroker
99+ intake manifold
62mm Jeeper Creeper TB
New TPS, New CPS, New plugs, Cap & Rotor, New coil. Wires are 2 years old and high performance "live wires"
Fuel Injectors are 24lb. Not sure of the brand and they are a year old.

Symptoms:
Intermittently when driving on the highway at speed generally after an hour a misfire will happen for a fraction of a second. You can feel the whole Jeep lose power. Then as quickly as it happen it goes away then the Jeep is fine again. Then it happens again for longer and more often until eventually it is misfiring so badly that and continuously that the jeep looses power and I have to pull over. I have an air fuel gauge and it always shows the engine leaning out as the misfire happens. Codes thrown last night are/were 23 & 27:
23: Intake air temperature sensor input above or below acceptable voltage.
27: Injector #3, and/or 4, and/or 5, and/or 6 output driver does not respond properly to the control signal.
Last time this happened on the way home from KOH I pulled over and let her sit for a few min and tried starting her up again several times and the problem still persisted. I limped back to Brothers 4x4 and parked the Jeep in front of the shop and swapped my gear from my Jeep to another vehicle. By the time we swapped gear and I started the Jeep to show Haik the problem was gone and the Jeep was running like new again. Haik tried to drive the Jeep daily to replicate the problem however I think he never just drove it long enough to where the engine got hot enough to cause the misfire again. It never happens around town...only after being on the highway for an hour at speed around 2500 rpm or so.
I have another ECU that I have swapped in the past and the problem didn't clear and showed the same codes when I started the Jeep. I haven't started her since I made it home last night after sitting for about 30 min. She misfired almost the whole way home intermittently but I made it home. I have to get this fixed. I should be able to drive my Jeep across the country with no issues like this. Any thoughts or ideas are welcome.
Thanks,
Brett
