Welcome from Va. Wish I could have a diesel. This 3.52 a gallon gas and 13 mpg really is starting to bring on the suck.

I welcome you from South Texas. I particularly like your tool of choice to work on your Jeep. The hammer laying across the valve cover is my choice to but I like a larger ball peen hammer to get the job done LMAO. Again WELCOME to CF.
