I have a Jeep "wk" with the hemi. I have to say it is shortening my life!
Does anyone know what is causing the vibration/hesitation when the throttle
is lightly applied?
I understand I may get flamed or ridiculed, but I am going crazy. My wife's
"WJ" and my daughter's "XJ" run better!
Thanks Joe

 

Is that the one where you buy a V8 that decides you really wanted to buy a
V6 or a V4 ? If so, I'd investigate the cylinders shutting off for the
vibration.
