If you have issues with a Jeep Carburetor, here is a answer I left in another forum...
I rebuilt my first Carter, on a 1984 CJ7 258, in 1998. I did all the tricks to bypass the stepper motor and smog stuff. Shortly afterwards, because it never worked right, I purchased my first Weber (K551-38). I will NEVER re-build a Carter again. The 300 CFM Weber (Model K551) actually increases gas mileage and power! The 400 CFM Weber (Model K551-38) gives a seat of the pants increase in power I just couldn't believe. Kits are readily available for the 4.2 liter at about $380 and $480 respectively. The kits include EVERTHING you need to make the change. You won't regret it. As a side note, the '84 actually passed emissions better with the Weber than with all the smog stuff working "properly". I'll post a link in the "Vendors" section to our Weber page...
Though the link is to the CJ7 page, the same kits work on all Jeeps with the specified engines...
Weber Carburetor for Jeep from $379.99
