Then it started to idling like was going to shut off when I started the engine trying to go in reverse or drive I had to hold the gas and brake to keep the vehicle started . Later , I about 4 weeks I replace all the intake manifold gaskets. The parts was not expense the labor was a killer itself. Replies to this message: jeepnstein1 (Apr 29, 2009 7:06 am)

Replying to: trooperdiva (Apr 28, 2009 5:34 pm) This is a very good point. The vacuum leak can get quite loud and sound almost like a lifter ticking. The fuel mileage will drop through the floor as well. I went from 10 to 14 mpg after repairing mine.   The intake gaskets on the 3.5 are ridiculous. If you ever get a chance to look at the OEM's you'll know what I mean. Hard Plastic? Yeah, that'll last forever or until it gets brittle. Fel-Pro makes an interesting replacement that should last. It's my only gripe with an otherwise really nice vehicle. Judging from what I saw when I changed mine I can say that everyone will have to do this repair sooner or later.
