After the flash the TC doesn't lock up until reaching 62mph.( tach drops from 2K-1.75) After lock up it drops back out at about 57 MPH. With prevailing speed limits of 55 in my area, it seems that this would be detrimental to max mileage. The dealer contends this is normal. Does anyone else have this problem? Any solutions? Purchased the vehicle new and have had no problems other than those dealt with in recalls, now approaching 60K miles. Dennis

Hey Nes, how have you and the liberty been doing? I havent been on the forum for a while now, been busy at work. I have some update data for you concerning the propane feed system I developed. The best results I have right now is a flow rate of 5.0 scim which raises my Mpg to 5.3. I drive interstate to work every day and average speed is 75 to 80 mph. These results are accomplished with 100% bio diesel. I havent used petro diesel for about 30,000 miles now, so I dont have any data on petro at all. If big oil would let the price get back to $2.00 a gallon I would use it long enough to get the comparison data. Just guessing I would think that the milage would be a little better due to the higher BTU value of petro. Once I have found the best possible results with propane, I will hook the hydrogen generator back into the configuration and see what the top end Mpg will be. Right now my milage is 25.8 with propane and 20.3 without it. The additional cost last time I checked was .03 cents per mile. Ok partner take care and I will catch yuh later. Tnilc99 |

Today I attempted to change out the fluid in the front differential but ran into a problem. I got the skid plate off with a 16mm socket. The drain plug takes an eight mm hex. However, the fill plug takes something totally foreign. A hex wrench does not work and the opening looks square. A 3/8 inch drive extension end is too large while a 1/4 inch drive extension end is too small. What tool do I need to purchase? Thank you in advance.

Replying to: winter2 (Jul 13, 2009 3:44 pm) It seems a 3/8" ratchet should be appropriate: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Jeep_Liberty/Torque_Specs_&_Socket_Sizes
