I just purchased a 1989 YJ. I come out in the morning and it starts right up, but idles high. When I start driving it the Jeep runs fine until I stop and the the jeep dies. As soon as it is warm itruns great.

It is possible. Depending on tire size, differential gearing ratio, etc, it could happen. I have a 2.5L, 4.88 gears, a 5 speed, and 33" tires. My RPM's aren't exactly low.
 
2800 is just shy of where the 2.5 has the most power it seems (but that isn't saying a WHOLE lot.

I have looked and asked everyone and everywere( not the jeep dealers yet) and can't find what im looking for!! I need new weatherstripping for the bottom of my back window!! It just goes along the bottom of the window so when you close the little back door the top window goes down so the rain doesn't get in.. I have a 2004 jeep wrangler tJ.. does anyone know were i can get this strip for my back window? It's not the the round rubber that goes in the window .. It's the thick piece that goes on the bottom of the window.. if you have any idea were i can purchase this it would be great!! Thanks.

try jc whitney for the weather stripping. they have everything that I have needed for my 95 YJ that I could not find anywhere else. I'm sure they will be cheaper than the dealer as well

Why is it important to get a non-OE weatherstrip?

Are we talking hard top or soft top here? If soft top, just get a new bar for the back window.
 
BTW this should be in the Jeep Wrangler 97-2006 section not the YJ area.
 
Try quadratec or JCWhitney.

So we're talking hard top?
 
I found some trim, but this may be for the side windows...

You may be able to contact the people on that site to find exactly what you're looking to find.
