Title: Over Revving WJ
Post by: STUARTF on December 28, 2012, 02:20:07 PM

Afternoon All
Can anyone shed any light on a hiccup thats started today.
When starting my Grand Cherokee 4.0 Auto WJ 2000 she revs at 2000 + revs and will not settle to idle, sometimes revving to 3500 oooooooh.
Accelerator cable loose  so no probs there. Can be a little hairy when coming up to junctions. Any advice greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your replies, have to own up now
 :lol_hitting: I didnt remove the hidden instructions wrapped in the coned K&N filter, this then got sucked into the gizzards and once removed back to normal. What a plonker :017:
Cheers
