So, were on our way back and something is seriously off with my jeep. This morning when we took off everything seemed fine. Then, coming off an exit in West VA earlier i noticed as i was slowing down, my engine seemed to be "putting"... Meaning my muffler sounded more "put,put,put" then usual. So i hit the gas to accelerate and noticed my jeep accelerate kinda jerky, like it wanted to stall. I popped the hood at the rest stop and noticed the engine seems like its shaking around a bit more than usual. Jeep is idiling a little below the "1" on the guage, which i guess is 1000 rpm? The thing thats weird is that when i hit the gas, it sounds just fine and stops shaking, and when im doing anywhere between 10 to 80 mph i dont notice a change... its only when going around 5 mph during acceleration and when idiling.
Spark plug? Spark plug wire? bad gas? We made it to indiana without it stalling out, but we're going through Kansas tomorrow so i want to make sure its nothing serious before i break down in "Nowheresville". Thanks in advance.
