Default Newbie from north Jerz

Just recently got a 97 jeep GC. Had a 2001 ram pick up but someone hit it and ran... I always wanted a Jeep so I guess it was a blessing in disguise even though I still love and miss my old girl lol. Well Anyone else from Dirty Jerz?

I have a 6cyl. I owned my 5.9 dodge for 8 years so I needed something with better gas mileage lol. Figured the 6 was the way to go. Plus I heard these motor's are almost indestructible.. It's in pretty good shape inside and out.. Just had a slight problem with it but it's being looked into. What do you have?

Actually have to replace the upstream o2 sensor in mine. Was making the truck buck and backfire though the intake.. Disconnected it and it works a lot better. Just gotta pick up the sensor tomorrow now.

If you're interested some of the north jersey people try to meet up on Sundays at garden state plaza. Haven't been out there in awhile but there's a thread going about meetings. Would like to get this started up again.
