Gave the trottle body a good scrubbing with a toothbrush, it was amazing how much black crud was in there. It ran like complete crap for a minute or two while the pcm was figuring things out again, but now I can't tell when the compressor kicks on. (Before idle would get rough with A/C on.)

Also, did a vacuum test with a bit of paper, it revealed that I have holes in the exhaust (already knew about those) surprising thing was that it was just water coming out. (I thought for sure I was running rich.)

Installed new crankcase breather. The one that was installed could've been stock, not sure. Only owned the ZJ since October, but the inside was completely solid with oil. This one is nice and shiny, lol.

so wheeling my rig with short arms in the rear has finally caught up with me! I have been hearing a pooping under the rig since my trip this weekend so I got under to night to see my left rear upper control arm is ripping the mount off the unibody ! I am taking it to my welder to see what it would cost to fix it and brace it until I have the money for my rear long arms! this really sucks because I want to do long arms so bad but being single income family with two kids is holding me back! who out there make the cheapest rear long arms upgrade kit?
