Yes it was that small dusting of fluffy snow we got after the big storm...I did not even think it would be an issue. And yes I see people with tons of snow on the roof....Better than that is the people who turn their wipers on with a foot of snow on the windshield and break the linkage, then...

02 sensor will not help your gas milage unless it is giving a false or bad reading. Id do the tune up with MOPAR OEM stuff and champion coper plugs as stated earlier. And watch how you drive! I drive 104 miles everyday on the highway. With a stock XJ i can get 19.72 mpg if I really drive...

I got lucky this time....My wife was driving in Greenwich Twp. NJ near Phillipsburg, and got pulled over. The obviously board officer said she had snow on the roof. He let her go with a warning. But the thing is there was about 1/4" of powder snow on the roof. He said the fine is 200$ and 2...

Seems like you have done a lot of testing and haven't come up with anything out of the ordinary. You said you are getting OBD2 software with live data stream right? I would hook that up, clear the codes, then drive around until it pops up again. It should "freeze" the data when the code...

I second the carb cleaner ...spray everywhere air might get in, around the injectors and intake manifold, etc Does your meter have a min/max function?....the refresh rate it too slow to see a pulse or sweeping signal, but at least you can see if your with in spec.

You mean the gasket before the cat? Why would you remove that? you created an air leak now the o2 sensor is adding fuel.

How mild are we talking? There should not be THAT much of a difference. I mean you should not be able to wrap your hand around either without your hand starting to hurt real quick. I had a similar problem, and I flushed the heck out of the core and it got MUCH better, but it is still not as...

Well the oil on the filter indicates excessive blow by, oil getting past the rings and passing back thru the CCV orifice and into your filter. As far as the goop, I cant say I have ever seen that before, maybe someone else has, but it looks like oil and coolant mix. I have not seen goop like...

What does the oil look like when you pull the dip stick? Pull the oil filler cap turn in over and look at whats in side...do you have while smoke?

Was this reading when fully warmed up?

Fuel trim number are opposite from o2 sensor numbers. a minus number indicates you are subtracting fuel plus indicates your adding fuel. Where as o2 sensor voltage is Lean=low .1v to .45v Rich=high .45v to .8v I dont know the spec either but as a general rule, any thing under +/- 8 to 10%...

BTW are all the outlets glowing? Is that stock?

It acceptable but would indicate your running slightly rich...which is odd considering your header is glowing.

I know this is kind of a crappy answer but...Leave the plug alone, I had the same hanging plug on my 90... Fix the vac lines....there should be a diagram under your hood.

Good new about the brake booster check valve. Although I believe your evap code might return...VERY common thing. Misfire could be intermittent and go away with a tune up.
