I am re-entering the CJ phase after not having one for close to 10 years - every spring I sulked over selling my 76 CJ7. Finally, we purchased a CJ7 (84) this summer. It has a terrific ride! The engine has considerable blow-by and I'm new to the 258 & its quirks. Love the "stoutness" of the 4.0 in my previous Cherokees, so I look forward to working on this earlier straight six.

I welcome hints or ideas for dealing with the Weber Carb. I'm not yet sure which one it is. However, I have a few emission tubes that sit in the engine bay ... I assume from the original carb. I've been told that the Weber really needs to breathe and that the vacuum hoses could be a cause for the blow-by.

Aghh, I could go on. I'll repost this in its appropriate section.

Anyway, happy to be Jeepin again.
