    Engine Trouble

    If there are no codes my guess would be a dirty throttle body. I used to work in a shop and we'd see a lot of cars with the same symptoms do that.

    KJ vs Deer

    I actually felt bad I killed the darned thing. At least it didn't suffer though. I also come to find out that this area is a known deer crossing and there are near misses daily. I went to our city council and proposed this solution . They agreed that it was a good idea and they are looking...

    KJ vs Deer

    I'm guessing that the way the bumper rolls down, it pushes the deer down toward the pavement, whereas most passenger cars are lower and have a more slanted hood, which sends the deer into the windshield. Mine did break my grill though, and dent the hood. And actually a bolt came through the...

    KJ vs Deer

    It's a little bit worse than the picture shows. The hood has a huge dent from his head, and the fender is pushed back and creased. Everything on the left side is pushed back an inch or so, so I think the core support is bent. But all in all, I think it did better than a lot of vehicles would...

    KJ vs Deer

    Actually, it was kind of strange. Some dude dressed in camo in a big 4x4 p/u drove up and asked if he could have it. I told him sure, I was done with it....

    KJ vs Deer

    After I hit it, I stood in the road with a flashlight to warn people, but some kid in an Accord hit the carcass again at full speed. He hit it so hard both back wheels left the ground. And the guy never stopped. He had to mess his car up pretty good.

    KJ vs Deer

    Coming home from work tonight, I was about 3 blocks from home, and 3 or 4 deer jumped out in front of me on the highway. I was doing about 50 when I seen his eyes right in front of the windshield. Considering how hard as I hit him, the Lib came our rather well, as I was able to drive away. If...

    My Post Detailing Pics

    Looks great! I'm also going to try the buffer/scratch-x deal. I took my stock Lib out this weekend for it's first ever off road adventure. Now I have a few scratches in the paint and the wife is not all that pleased about it.

    How to clear the check engine light

    I had the check engine light for a loose gas cap. After about 6 run cycles, I disconnected the battery's negative cable for 60 seconds and that did the trick for me.

    Good street tire...

    I had the same experience a few weeks ago in my KJ. While making a left in the rain, the damn thing snapped loose and went all the way around with no warning. Now had it just been me in the car with no other cars around, it may have been entertaining. But I was in heavy traffic with the wife...

    rear interior side panel removal

    Well, it was easy as the picture made it look. I installed a thru-glass CB/weather antenna and a Midland remote mount weather CB. The CB reception is ok, but the weather band reception is really good now. Thanks again for the help!
