Hey,
I just joined because I finally found an XJ that i want :laugh3:. I am trying to search the forum but can't figure out how. Do I just have to sort through all of the posts or is there a better way?
What I'm trying to look up is info on death wobble. I've never experienced it before but I think I may have got some yesterday because it was wobbling and I thought we were going to die haha. The front sway bar is disconnected and it looks like one of the front tires is slightly off camber so maybe that's causing it? The situation was going up a relatively steep hill at about 35-40 and holding the gas down pretty hard. I had just been wheelin' and some water made it's way into the distributor cap and was causing misfire and rough idle. After I pulled off the road and fixed that I didn't experience the death wobble anymore, could this be part of the severe jerking I was getting?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Adam
