Too many miles i think, it dont like the LPG. Stuck some Radweld X in and codes are gone, fuck me i havent touch a bottle of radweld since i had my first car.

and the new exhaust sounds as underwelming as BD's next haircut, frickin Jeep, i love it and hate it in equal measure :die:

Is the flashlube working on the LPG as it wasn't previously was it.

hemi+lpg+ 4 inch lift = happy Jedi

YOU can take the wheels and tyres with you...the bars wil fit and you get a new toy with better milage as it drop down to 4 cylinders once up to speed

plus you can fit 33" tyres with a 4 inch lift on a WK.

Been looking at it myself but no funds yet. YOu have much to learn my padawan.
