Zebvance Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I blew the 35 a few months ago and have been staring up the jeep every other week or so and driving it around the block in 4hi just to get fluids moving. Basically driving it in front wheel drive. I have noticed if I give it some heavy gas it will bog down down and hesitate. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zebvance Posted May 7, 2013 Author Share Posted May 7, 2013 Whole exhaust is brand new. About 800 miles on it. And I put 20$ of gas in it and it still does it. Not as often. But still does it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biotex Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Still, I wouldn't rule out stale gas. How much was in the tank before you put in the 5 gallons? See where i'm going? Keep in mind that an empty tank has air, and air contains moisture. An empty tank sitting will repeatedly condense several drops of water with each temperature change. Think dew in the mornings. Over time, this water will settle to the bottom of the tank, which as you know, is where the pickup is. So, the bottom line is that there could easily be some old watery gas in the tank even with 5 gallons of fresh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
