my J recently will start vibrating randomly and the check engine light will come on. but when i give it acceleration the car will quit vibrating and the light will go off. i then got to the ECM (pain in the butt), and it gave me code 51 injector circuit. anyone know what this code means?

You have a failing injector.
Ohm each injector and the culprit should show up.
I could be a coil or a plug but, both of my bad injectors did the same thing.
It will get worse and finally fail.
Makes for a shaky ride home. :)

A functioning injector will be in the 10-14 ohm range. Anything below or above indicates injector failure.
