Learned something new today about the ZJ. Factory foglamp brackets fit most of the aftermarket lights I have around the shop.

I won't be keeping these cheapies on, but the location and fit is perfect.

He was telling me to check my trans to engine bolts if they were loose and they were all tight...I haven't really gotten much of feedback from him....dropped the truck off at the mechanic today to see what he can find out....

I wish it were that easy...the truck barely made it out of the driveway this afternoon and as soon as I got to the mechanic the truck started right up! Drove great didn't shut down not one time...smh....I had to "pretend" to get out of the shop for it to shut down then he'll see what was going on with the truck....

While it was running good, did you perform a wiggle test?
My guess is loose or oxidized pigtail connector. Regardless, I'd clean the terminals with de-oxidizing cleaner & pipe brush and close up the female terminals with a dental pick to ensure a tight fit to eliminate that possibilty now and in the future.

Thanks.
I've never seen that spray before...
But will buy it for future reference...I've done most of the cleaning and metal picking but obviously over time with the mud and dirt there's probably still a bit of residue there
