Was able to limp off the Mt with 4 high front wheel drive so not total fail. Anyway about the happy ending. The wife and I have bumped up the time table and are...

    Splashing = Bad?

    Looking for ideas to stop my '89 YJ from stalling whenever I go through a puddle faster than 5mph. I think it is the distributor getting wet that causes the shut down and 20 min or so wait before she'll start again but I am not sure. Has anyone here experienced this and do you have suggestions...
