    Engine sputters and dies after cleaning throttle body / IAC valve

    Yes, I did. I've never seen one before, so I kind of explored it. When I realized that that part moved I looked inside. Could it be lined up wrong now?

    Engine sputters and dies after cleaning throttle body / IAC valve

    Jerry, The reason I did this was a rough idle. I have heard that a nasty IAC valve can cause that. I know that my vacuum hoses are dry rotted, and plan to swap those next. Any other thing you could point me towards?

    Engine sputters and dies after cleaning throttle body / IAC valve

    Hey guys, Yesterday I pulled my throttle body and cleaned it. While I had it off I also pulled the IAC off and sprayed it and cleaned it. I put everything back on, but now if I rev my engine, it dies when I let off the gas. What have I done and how do I fix it. Thank you in advance.

    Shaking between 45 and 55

    I think this may be what I'm dealing with. She said that they could get a guy in there to do an inspection. Drive the Jeep and all that. She wanted to charge me to do that. I have a shop near me that handles off road vehicles that I have wanted to check out. I may take it there. Let me ask...

    Shaking between 45 and 55

    Hey Guys, This isn't death wobble, I had that when I didn't torque my track bar down enough. This is just a shake that starts at 45 and stays until 55 mph and then levels out. I pulled my track bar and the ball joint moves freely. I can make it move any way I want with one finger. Does that...

    Do I need to re-gear?

    Do I need to re-gear?

    I've considered even just regearing to 3.73. I believe I could use the same carrier if I did that. I live in Alabama, don't really crawl at all. The lack of power even just at 31 inches bothers me. I don't think I plan on going bigger than 31. I have enough projects going without adding...

    Front sway bar bushing and links—how hard?

    This depends on what you have. I ended up pressing my links out with a ball joint tool. If you don't have a tool, it could be very tough. You can rent one at all the major parts stores though. Not hard to figure out. The bushings shouldn't be bad at all.

    Do I need to re-gear?

    Hey Chris, quick question. Can you explain what it's like after getting a Jeep regeared. I've always been surprised at how bad my Jeep sucks going up hills on the highway. It's always done what I want offroad, but it's kind of wimpy.

    JMT's idea: list one mod you regret

    What did you regear to? I have 3.07 and would like to go lower but I am interested to hear why you regret it.
