| I have a 1988 cherokee that is chugging when I excellerate. Its feels like I am miss firing and at the same time it feels like the drive line isn't engaging. We changed the plugs (the old ones were bad) and nothing changed. The last owner put in a new cooling system and for some reason the coolant is rusty, could this cause the problem? We also put a higher octane gas in her and that didn't help ( it actually made it worse). We are also getting a lot of fuel in the exhaust. When we changed plugs the very back plug (I have a straight 6) was covered in fuel. to me this seems like I have blown piston rings, but not sure. I also thought about putting the plug riser in that one to see if that helps. Any Ideas would be very helpful. Please help I have a baby due any day now and need a reliable rig. paganmomma | |

Have you changed the fuel filter? Inexpensive and easy for a start! Injectors could be clogged/dirty. Could be bad spark plug wires? Bad cap and rotor... Good luck! David

I live in Springfield OR and I am looking for a cheap place to go and get a front driverside electric track. Does anyone know of a good place to go? The seat is in good condition, but the track is busted. The last owner was a very big man. Thank You Paganmomma
