Thanks, and as for PINKY hopefully my nephew will grow up a little one of these days and get beyond her pinkness and decide he wants her to get back and forth to school. Either that, or parts. It doesn't have many miles on the engine since I built it, and ALOT of the parts in her are new. It was just getting to the point though of every time I turned around I was working on her instead of being able to work on other peoples stuff. And the 4.7L has always been one of my favorites. His other DAKOTA has the 5.9L in it, but you couldn't get me to take that one off his hands. A 5.9L gets about 14 MPG on a good day, this thing averaged 18.4 on my way home according to the overhead.

I blame it on ethanol myself. I never lost a pump until E-10 showed up down here. I put 4 in from autozone within 6 weeks, and then I put an OEM in and it made it 12 months and a week. Of course being one week over the 12 months they said to bad, so I went back to the aftermarkets. And I know it's not trash in the fuel system as it has an almost new tank in it. It got really annoying having to work on my JEEP everytime I drove it.

And I almost felt bad taking the truck for $7K, ALMOST!

Sorry RM, I just couldn't justify piecing her back together again. I had a yard full of JEEPS with good parts when I started driving her. Now I just have a yard full of junk JEEPS as most any good part has been robbed from em. It gets expensive keeping one running when you have to actually buy new parts.

I hate to see a pinky get worn out but when they start to rust its time to go.
