A Jeep is simply not just a vehicle, it's a lifestyle. Welcome and get used to an empty wallet.

Get all your fluid levels and condition checked out before doing much of anything. You never know what the PO did for maintenance.

A good going over as far as a tune-up with new plugs, wires, cap and rotor along with a throttle body cleaning will serve you well.

Click on the pink link in my signature for some cheap, easy tips to address known issues with your era Jeep.
