We I put car in drive it needs extra gas to go & when you let off the gas it stops/deselerates quickly. I took it around the block but i was scared to go over 25 miles an hour. It sems like something is dragging/slowing it down. Help - please let me know ideas on problem & costs to fix it, thanx

REGARDING THE LINK, WITHIN MY LINK........YES, "A124" IS STILL WORKING AT THE "ADVANCE AUTO PARTS" SITE.......ANOTHER JEEP PAL OF MINE JUST BOUGHT A RADIATOR ONLINE YESTERDAY, PICKED IT UP AT THE LOCAL STORE 30 MINUTES LATER, FOR HIS WRANGLER, IT WAS $129......A124 KNOCKED OFF $40!

LEMME KNOW IF THIS HELPED YOU.....I TRY TO, ALL I CAN

MAYBE I READ THIS TOO FAST!

DO A VISUAL UNDERNEATH......I REALLY HATE IT WHEN SOME VAGRANT FELLER SLEEPS UNDER MY JEEPS!

ROLL ALL OF YOUR WINDOWS DOWN, HAVE A PAL LISTEN TO ALL FOUR CORNERS OF YOUR CAR, AS YOU DRIVE...........ANY NOISE AT A SPECIFIC WHEEL?

SURELY, THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AIN'T ON!

ARE YOU IN "DRIVE" AND NOT A LOWER GEAR?

YOUR TURN
