I like spraying with carb cleaner to find vacuum leaks.

Got a cap from the junkyard on Friday, but I have a test on Tuesday so I won't get around to cutting it and checking the indexing till Tuesday afternoon at the soonest.

Seems to have no stumble left after cutting one tab off and rotating it just a few more degrees, but the high idle is still there. One down, one to go.

Got the edges lined up, so now onto some other things I'm noticing that I feel shouldn't be happening. The o2 heater voltage is rarely above 12 and never over 13. Also, sometimes the voltage the ecm is reading is 13.5, sometimes 14, sometimes 14.5. I haven't found a pattern yet with what causes the difference in voltages. I guess it's something I need to look into more and trace some wiring and such

Lately the Jeep won't stay in closed loop. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to if it stays in closed loop or not. Sometimes the o2 sensors will swing rich/lean and sometimes it barely moves at all. It always seems to follow rich and lean though. If I let off the gas it will drop voltage, and if I quickly stomp on the gas it will go up near 5v like it richens up. I'm not sure if the o2 sensor is bad and lethargic or if maybe something else is causing it. I have the old o2 sensor I took out of it still, so next time it's not raining and I'm not loaded up with tests I may swap it in and see how it acts.
