    Have you checked the fuel filter? If it is dirty it will idle fine but buck and stutter at higher revs.

    What did you do to your TJ today?

    Hit a deer recently and it damaged my grill and right fender. Good news, insurance covered the repair. However, both fenders were showing signs of rust through - so I had the shop repair my left fender at the same time and now I have a completely new front end !

    Jeeps parking next to other cool things!

    OK - I see that you are envious of the chrome on the Cadillac. Are you going to add more bling to your Jeep? No offense... Your chrome grill looks good

    Are you a 'motorcyclist'?

    I used to be a biker - I started out with a simple Yamaha 650 twin because I have always been an anglophile and a fan of British iron and the Yamaha is a copy of the Triumph Bonneville. Then I dove In head first and bought a '71 Norton Commando which I later found out that it was a bastardised...
