In this video I correct a rough running 1988 Wrangler YJ 4.2l with an automatic transmission. I go over timing and, carburetor adjustments using a vacuum gauge, and timing light. And the effects of a poorly tuned engine has on spark plugs.
Thanks for watching.

I have an HEI 1 hot wire ,1 tach. ! vac to advance on the HEI. 1 to the brake booster. That;s it, No vac lines And much less wires. This equals a very clean engine bay. Simple and old school easy, Oh and a Crown 2bbl carb. No elect choke. I rigged a manual choke. GREAT VIDEO Very Very informative!

Thanks for the great video, I'm going to use what I learned and see if it helps cure my "running-on" issue.

Don't take this the wrong way, but you need a tripod or have someone else run the camera. You have one of the best car videos I have seen. You know what you are doing and you do it right. Its the photography that needs help. You need more time to make the video so you can pick the camera angles before doing the adjustments and have time to cut and move the camera. I wish I could help you with this, but I am in TN.

Nice video. I have an 88 as well and the first thing I did was swap the Carter for a Weber 32/36. Most likely will be moving to an EFI after a full rebuild on the engine.

Good info. It will help me. Do you have a video further explaining adjusting the sol-vac and fast and curb idle screws?

Where can i find electric cable that's connected to the stepper motor, just bought a jeep wrangler yj 1990 and that cable is missing, could that be the reason why my jeep wont start? Can i bypass it since i dont have that cable?

Hi, do you think this engine could run on Holley Sniper EFI with E85 (permanent, not flex fuel) by using the same additive as advertised in your video? Snifer EFI's injectors are not ethanol rated.

I wouldn't run E85 in this engine.

Hey, where do you hook up the vacuum gauge to find good timing advance? Where do you hook it up to tune the carburetor?

Move the distributor around until it smooths out, that will get you close.

Does a motor like this need an O2 sensor? I'm having issues getting my 4.2L through DEQ, the CO and CO2 are way too high.

No O2 sensors if it has a carburetor, check the ignition system and the carburetor to make sure they are all working properly.

The fuel pump should be on a lower point because it's not a good sucker.

Wow yeah you not know…. Saying you Rich’d the mixture by turning the air mix screws out but that’s adding air which is lean… or maybe you were just breathing too many exhaust fumes by being 750rpm which is near the high rpm circuit drawing from the main jets rather than being fully in the idle low speed circuit Try again dude
