Just a little update, finished up some stuff. Bought an amp wiring kit, and will be buying an amp soon. Covered my console lid in camo, hit a new mileage mark, and my cel came on and engine is running like shi*. Thought it was a cracked head, but after a few test I think I just need to do a full tune up and a full coolant/radiator flush. And still need an alignment and to put my tie rod on. But anyways.... Haha

Oh and good news, ordering my black rock series 997 rims, and new head lights and smoked turn signals.

(lol notice all the mud in the street from washing it earlier )

I would keep the Ravine Rims and go with the Soft 8s For offroading best of both worlds

You can just take it to autozone/advance auto/your parts store of choice and they'll read the code and you can write it down and google it when you get back

Mine comes on so much I just leave it alone.

It's always a fuel system leak (that even Jeep couldn't trace down and fix after a week of trying) and serious mis-fire in cylinder 3- which is the result of Jeep's heat shield being installed due to a recall that traps heat in the #3 well.

thats usually what mine is to, except it feels like my engine is not running normal this time.

example: i drove a few miles tsc the other day. cut my engine off and went inside and came back out 20 minutes later, crank it up and its like the engine is bogging down, and the whole jeep is vibrating badly, but im still in park. so i put it in drive and i have to floor it to get over 10mph and then its fine and doesnt do it anymore, the temp gauge stays in the middle and my coolant is continuing to disapear and turn brown.

im thinking a simple coolant/radiator flush should fix it, but need more opinions...

I get that same thing - on mine it's the misfire in cylinder #3 (due to the injector cooking from the heat). If you just sit there for 60-90 seconds does it start running smoother?
