    Black Betty no start

    The bowl vent tube spilling fuel is probably something for you to return to look at once you get the jeep running again since the bowl float should prevent the bowl from filling enough to come out the vent tube. Something is not operating correctly in there for that to happen. All it will...

    Finally got a hard top for the 2019 wrangler

    We were tired of the noise of the soft top on the highway because it turns out that our factory top was finally wearing out. The rear support bar had separated from the top and was allowing it to flop, noisily, in high wind or speeds. It is the top that came on the jeep from the dealer so it...

    Unusual brake issue

    Check your booster and your master cyclinder. I have had a bad booster cause yhe brakes to slowly engage and act like what you are having trouble with. Snd it can cause your rotors to warp which will give you the shakes when you apply the brakes.

    1979 j10 258 Motor Stalls While Giving Gas Uphill and then Wont Crank After Being Shut Off.

    there are also ways to tune you carb by ear, but they are not nearly as effective as a vacuum gage. i grew up with carbs and didn't have a vacuum gage till i had my 87 wrangler. i never knew what i was missing because the improvement i got using hte gage versus by ear/feel was amazing.
