Won't go over 55 mph
« on: July 13, 2014, 05:56:17 am »
Anyone know why my cj 7 looses power at 55 mph I have 258 auto trans. Replaced all Spark plugs wires distributor cat and vacuum lines. I did leave vacuum advance n power boaster. I'm being told their should be one for trans but can't find one anywhere.
Thanks
Dave

Is it physically shifting into high gear?

It's not revving to 5000 rpm at that speed?

late to the dance - but when was the last time you changed the fuel filter?  Could just be starving for gas.
