Hola, So I just bought a 90’ XJ from a friend. He took a motor and trans from another XJ, same year and had them both rebuilt and installed himself. The Jeep ran last back in 2014. I literally drained the bad fuel and replaced it with new gas and it fired right up. Took it for a drive around the block and about 800 ft into it, it died but immediately restarted albeit a little rough. I assume it was still working out the old s**t gas. Bottom line, I put it back into drive and now it drags hard like I have the E brake on. I can put the trans on 3rd or 1-2 and it drives fine. But in drive I have to really gas it to get it to move at all ( like the Emergency brake is up ).. Reverse is good. Just let off the brakes and it’s rolls on it’s own through all the gears but Drive.
Any ideas? I’m no trans expert but wondering if it’s maybe a cable setting or of something got clogged and I need to take it in somewhere.
Thanks
