Replaced coil, cps, drove all over the place, got 1100 lbs of feed, drove in the snow for the first time in a long time, decided I liked the jeep again, then after it had been off for an hour it was hard to start, then ran, stalled, ran, stalled when I shut the hood, ran, had a few blips like I hit the key off while driving, but runs and sounds great usually. I take it back, I don't like this jeep.

So I've been having a problem with my YJ since I got it back. Thought the trans was popping into neutral while driving, so I took it to the shop I trust. They did a trans flush with ATF4, and it was good for a day. Started again the following day.
Turns out (realized today) my vacuum disconnect collar is slipping, and I'm losing power to my wheels. (Currently in 4WD without a rear shaft). I'm glad I did the flush cause it was really low due to the torque converter being improperly refilled, and I'm even happier it's a vacuum disconnect issue as opposed to a bad trans.
Now I'm getting ready for work, and I'll tackle a few little issues tomorrow.
Also got my QuickFist rollbar mounts in the mail today. I've heard good things, and I'm eager to mount my HiLift properly and without zip ties.

I replaced the autozone one that was the only one available at the time for a napa one that I've heard/read good things about. I don't live anywhere near a jeep dealer so if I decide it is in fact the CPS I'll order an OEM one. Haven't ever had a bad napa part, though any thing is possible.
