    A/C stops working correctly once driving

    Here is my problem. When I turn on the A/C, everything works, but as I drive down the road, the upper vents stop working and the outflow goes to the floor. When I take the load off the engine, the vents start working again. I am figuring it is a vacuum issue. I have replaced the vacuum line in...

    P0304: cylinder 4 misfire

    I’ve been having the same code pop up. Engine seems to be running good tho. I did receive a multiple cylinder random misfire code as well. Since I’ve been replacing everything else, could it be a sensor or even electrical? I’ve been thinking it’s about time to replace the wiring harness on my...

    Jeep went to high idle and won't come back down

    Gentlemen, thank you for all the valuable advice and discussion. As I started to troubleshoot the vacuum system, I finally threw a code. Drove it to the auto zone and it came up with the IAC sensor malfunctioning. There is a thread here about cleaning it, so I checked it out. It’s to the center...

    Jeep went to high idle and won't come back down

    Nope, no codes. I will check the cable. Thanks! I will have to check the vacuum system as well. Sure wish there was a diagram of that system out there. I have looked before and couldn’t find one

    Jeep went to high idle and won't come back down

    Okay, here is a new one for me. This afternoon I ran over to Home Depot for some supplies. After we left, the wife wanted some dinner, so we stopped in a drive thru. While we were sitting there, my jeep (2006 Rubicon, 4.0 I6, manual trans) jumped up to high idle and wouldn’t come back down. By...

    2006 Rubicon front drive shaft dust boot

    I have more information regarding my drive shaft. First off, the inside diameter of the boot ends are both 1.75in. Secondly, and I'm not sure if this will help or not, but I have some numbers off of the drive shaft itself. See pictures. Yes, I'm surprised the manufacturer stickers are still on...

    2006 Rubicon front drive shaft dust boot

    Good afternoon everyone! My question for today is if anyone knows where to get a replacement dust boot for the front drive shaft on my 2006 Rubicon. I have measured the ends, and they are both the same diameter, at about 3.5 inches. I'm going from memory here, since I'm at work and can't verify...

    Engine misfires

    My ignition system has a coil pack, so no spark plug wires to mess with. It’s a good thought tho!

    Engine misfires

    Gentlemen, Thought I would post an update. I replaced the fuel pump and pressure regulator. While I had the tank dropped, I sanded down the tabs on the overflow preventer to provide for smooth movement without sticking, which it was. Engine ran great at start up. Filled the tank, and I’m happy...

    Engine misfires

    Yes I am, but when the engine runs good, the computer will clear the code. It’s always either cylinder 1 or 4 misfire that comes up. Also, when the engine is running rough, the engine light will blink. From what I have read, this means the cats are being damaged, so I’m assuming there is either...

    Engine misfires

    Gentlemen, thank you for the info. Here are the answers to your questions. I have a 2006 Wrangler Rubicon with the straight 6 cylinder engine. I think it’s the 4.0L engine. Manual transmission, and Ive got 170k miles on it. As for the O2 sensors, I believe the upstream is before the pre-cats. I...

    Engine misfires

    Perhaps someone can help advise me on this. Engine light is lit. Sometimes the code is cyl 1 or 4 misfire. When idling, the engine light will blink sometimes. It’s all random. Seems to happen more when tank is half or less. Thought it was the injectors, but now I’m starting to think it might be...

    2006 Rubicon cruise control issues

    No, I haven’t had issues with the HVAC. At least not like you describe. A few months ago, I replaced a leaking heater core and have replaced the fan speed switch and the resistor bank due to fan speed issues.

    2006 Rubicon cruise control issues

    Thanks for the info Chris! I have all the original vacuum lines, so they could very well be breaking down. Is there some place to find a vacuum schematic for a 2006 wrangler rubicon?

    2006 Rubicon cruise control issues

    Here is my question. The cruise control on my Jeep does some odd things. Operating the right switch, increase/decrease speed and cancel sometimes turns the cruise control off. The button on the left needs to be pressed several times just to turn it on. This has been a problem for several years...

    Poor performance and misfires

    Jerry, Thanks for the reply! My Jeep is running like this whether it’s cold or warmed up. Is there anything that can unclog a cat if it’s just carbon build up? I’m assuming carbon since it’s in the exhaust system. I’m not really looking forward to having to replace the cats, since it’s a single...

    Poor performance and misfires

    I’m hoping someone may be able to help with this one. I have a 2006 Wrangler Rubicon. Original owner. It’s got 164k miles on it. 4.0 inline 6 with standard tranny(natch). Yesterday morning, I was driving to work and the Jeep started to chug badly. Was at highway speed at the time. Could only...
