Hey my jeep ran great when i first bought it back in september of last year. this year having not used the jeep much I went out to get it started and it did to my amazement. I took it for a quick drive, all the fluids have been checked and oil change and greasing was done. I get onto the highway and gave it some gas and noticed I wasnt going anywhere. My car wouldnt go over 2500 for the first 2 mins then it got up to 3000 and stayed their now im doing about 75mph and my car will go fasted but at that low of an rpm. What do I check. I have done the tune up, replaced all the fluids, cleaned the throttle body, and still have a problem. I used fuel injection cleaner which made it run rich for a little while but didnt help the speed. It feels almost like it boggs down a little bit when i punch it. Should I have a passing gear??? cause I dont and their is a cable by the throttle that isnt working It does across the fire wall to a black cylinder right next to my coolant overflow. This car absolutly chugs gas i get around 200 - 250 miles a tank. So I assume something is wrong but don't know how to diagnos it. HELP!?!?!
