ok this is going to sound sexist
the posts are that way be cause us as men feel the need to fix things and that is more true when it comes to girls breaking things or having problems because men should know how to fix it on there own and women most of the time dont.

and see now she should have to take it out wheeling when its fixed and post pics of her with the jeep covered in mud
come to think of it this should be a requirement on any help thread after its fixed just to show that it got done

Agreed, all fixed vehicles should have to be shown covered in mud as proof of fix.

this is def true, i dont think your being sexist. i think guys take pride in being able to fix things and girls usually appreciate the help and are impressed.

does it matter where in CT she is? You can be on opposite sides of the state and still only be 20 mins away...lol. Its not like here where the closest off roading area is 2 1/2 hours away.

so what should i do:
1. change the oil out to 10W40 high milage
2. check if the spark plug wire is loose or broken
3. check to see if the sensor is loose or busted

and what else?

would coolant have anything to do with it? the the thing 4 coolant tube run into broke and we replaced it....
did you check the firring order yet
