Has anyone successfully eliminated this issue? It's only the second time this code has come up and the check engine light goes off. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Code P1140

I looked at the code file and don't even find a 1140.:shrug:

My Jeep documentation does not have this code either.
If you Google "OBDII code P1140" you get a whole bunch of hits...probably your MAP sensor I think.:freak3:

P1140 means the flow control valve (intake throttle) is acting up. It is used to control EGR flow. Either the gears are stripped or the motor is going out. A new valve or a GDE tune will fix the problem.

Let's be a little more specific here. If the intake valve has failed mechanically -
A new valve will fix the mechanical problem and make the CEL/code go away.
A GDE tune will simply tell the ECM to turn off the intake valve and EGR, and make the CEL/code go away. The intake valve will still be fubar.
