Oil Burning

For some strange reason I have oil burning from my 95 YJ. I cant seem to put a finger on what it is. I can smell it coming from the exhaust when ever I have the back window open. I recently added an Air Raid Intake and a 62mm throttle body spacer. Could this be the issue? Also, how do you know when a oxygen sensor goes out? Seems like I am burning too rich. One more question, my second gear seems to be catching a little bit. Dont know what could be causing that either(maybe the synchro rings), but i just had those replaced not too long ago. I checked the clutch fluid level filled it up and bled the line, however, still no fix. Could this be a trans problem?

Thanks ahead of time,

95 YJ
Details:
1. Air Raid Intake
2. 62mm throttle body spacer
3. 2.5L engine
4. AX-5 tranny

Re: Oil Burning

What fluid are you running in the tranny?

If we can get you to run the right fluid soon, it may not be too late.

Re: Oil Burning

For the AX5, the wrong fluid is specified in the manual; I STRONGLY recommend Redline MT90! My jeep shifts SO much better after I put that in... It's not even funny! (before I could barely get 1st gear in when standing still!).
