On my way to the bolt store, a guy I know (fellow wheeler) works at a body shop and gave me the chance to look through their bolt bin and I found one that worked.

Ok so after countless oil filters being smashed and changed and having to carry a spare filter going wheeling and all that jazz. I finally got fed up and put my remote oil filter kit in that a recently bought.
Well after checking clearance the block adaptor wasn't made to come off the block but the factory filter adaptor which had been removed, ( should have just kept it stock). So after finding two 1/2" male npt to 1/2" female npt 90* fitting. If you've see one they are huge and both weight more then the adapter and half the price of the kit. So after finding out I can't thread both in without shaving some of the fitting off I grinded down one of the fittings so I could tighten both down, after that every thing was cake.*
I also mounted my vacuum bulb thing and replaced my IAC after cleaning it didn't fix my start up and idle.

So since changing my IAC my jeep idles on it own again lol. For the longest time it wouldn't then I would clean it last a little then back to how it was. Which I'm a pro at two footing the jeep. One on the gas and one on the brake to keep it running while braking or taking turns was tricky and playing in rocks was fun but also sucked cause of not be able to have it idle without a foot on the gas.*
I didn't buy new cause of budget but had an old throttle body in my jeep that had an IAC on it from a h.o. which the renix plug fit right in so I ran with it.
