    Jeep just got ripped off.

    1048560 88 - 90 was a 4.2 non high output. They were carburated. Different rollcages but prettymuch the same. 91 on up was a 4.0 high output. They were much more powerful and much more reliable. Untill I put on my weber carb. The 4.0's would spank me off the line every time. Other than...

    I swear I'll take a hammer to it...

    1048734 Is the timing in check? I advocate taking out the cat. Here in Va. Emissions laws vary from county to county. I would check it out. In the counties that require them, they are only performed every two years. To reduce the "tinny" sound you can try a glasspack.[addsig]

    89 4.2 power improvements

    1047909 Ive got an '89 with the 4.2. The Weber is a great carb!! 32/36 is what i have. I believe that the 32/38 is more for non street vehicles or vehicles with engine mods. It gives the promised improved power but has some drawbacks. My 32/36 has been on for like a year and a half. I...
