got a 90 renix cherokee i drive around town to class and stuff. my tools are 4 hours away and i bought it for $1000 and drive it like i stole it, so don't yell about maintenance lol
it's been overheating for about 6 months, never too bad though. small coolant leak and i think it needs a waterpump. i put a thermostat in it last summer.
this week, if it gets hot enough (needle hitting mid-way or past), it starts stumbling and missing like crazy until it dies. not a gradual thing, you go from cruising like normal to stumbling around at 800rpm instantly, til it dies. when i let it cool off a bit, it will start back up and drive like normal until it hits that magic temperature again.
anybody seen this before?
