Please Help !!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi guy's
Just wondering if anyone has come across this problem? I was driving home yesterday on the fwy and my RPM's dropped to zero and speed came down slowly for about 2 seconds then everything kicked back in. It was a scary feeling. Later about 10 miles down I had a quarter tank it dropped to "E" and gas fuel gage turned on as well don't know why this has never happen to me in the 11 years I have owned it.
Can someone please help?
Thanks much,

Can you tell us a little about your Jeep? Its impossible to help you if you dont provide absolutely as much information as you can...
It could be a few things, a bad fuse block being one.

I have to agree with Muddy on this one. I had the same situation in a different type of car, and found out the fuse box under the hood was getting wet and corroded. I replaced that and it worked fine.

Ok guys ,
I was driving and I saw my rpm's and fuel gauge drop and two seconds late they cranked back up to normal speed.The car did not shut off . Steering wheel looses power steering and brakes harden. I have not done anything to the car except my regular oil changes. Car starts and shuts right off with no problem if I step on the gas it takes off and breaks just fine when driving. This is all the info I can give you guys. seems like it must me a short to me but would not even know where to start looking .
Please Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With the information you've given me, sounds like muffler bearings. (Yes, I'm kidding)
