Default Problem Resolved

Well we took the timing belt back to AutoZone, and they exchanged it under warranty thankfully.The new belt timed properly coupled with the recapped computer seems to work great. The engine idles better, seems to have more power than before and starts up easily.

Glad to have the Jeep up and running again.

That's a good fit. And looks like it belongs there.
