See my profile, I do not know your rig well!
Are you a carb or injection?
Imma CJ Guy.I answer in CJ5 & CJ7 forums alot.
This may be a "Generic" EZ problem you have! (Speculating)
On a CJ (Carb) It sounds like maybe you are STARVING for fuel. During "Routine Driving" you might not be calling for MORE fuel, as you are, when pulling a hill etc.A dirty fuel filter will RESTRICT flow!
When's the last time you Studied your ROUTINE SCHEDULED MAINTENENCE IN A POPULAR REPAIR MANUAL, written specifically for your rig?
They are handy and explain alot of things, if kept in your rig, good for an emergency, costs about $30!
If you haven't replaced your FUEL FILTER at its proper interval, DO SO NOW!
If my diagnoses is incorrect, At least I helped you with a Maintenence Step you had neglected.
Come back to "reply to question" and give me some GREAT NEWS!
Maybe we can continue, if need-be
Spill your guts, in detail, anything you may have left out----adjustments, new parts, atmosphere when it started this. Etc.
I am not a paid mechanic, nor compensated lke they are at this site. I am a Member like you.
This is my hobby, I saw you had been unanswered. So I thought I would try to assist you. Many here, cannot be assisted, due to overwhelming numbers of question writers. Waiting a long time to help usually results in you seeking help elsewhere. Maybe a more expensive route. Now you know why I answered you, FELLOW JEEP LOVER!
I do have a few CJ Manuals that include Early Wranglers.I still may possibly assist you!
