Weber that was legal for off road only, here in Ca. It improved my mileage and performance but doesn't pass visual so replaced it with stock. Carb won't run longer than 20 min...This is the ongoing problem. Jeep is parked and I'm bummed. Anybody have the same problems? I'd sure appreciate some help and ideas mechanics seem baffled.
Thanks,Rob
The only help I can offer is......you might want to post this in the "Tech" section - I seriously doubt if it will get many reads here. Since you're new here, I'll cut you some slack (as far as posting to a "sticky").......browse around, maybe even use the "search" feature. Lots of good minds on here!!!


Oh, and welcome to the "Z"!!!!!
