Re: Confused 98 TJ Shift-Light / White Valve Stems
:) I do need a reminder every now and again, the way I drive
sometimes..
I'll have to check all the intake manifold connections, but I figured
that the computer would be smart enough to realize that I'm in 5th,
and never turn the light on regardless of what the vacuum is, (and/or
whatever other parameters it looks at when deciding when to turn the
light on.)
But, there I go again assuming a computer is smart, :) .. I know
something has changed, as it never did this before I fooled around
under the hood..
Thanks for the responses guys.
