Hmm I did not . Dealer said the mopar plugs were tapped to 0.045 but I should have checked . Probably going to dealer now since it’s still under extended warranty .

Hopefully it’s as simple as that. I had to adjust a couple of my champions when I did my plugs a couple weeks ago.

Seems a little too coincidental that the issue was the old plug and the new plug also problematic for that same cylinder .

Wondering if it could be bad fuel injector 4.

Otherwise I know there was an extended warrantee for some heads in the 2012/2013s .. heard of folks in 2014s having issues too .

That sucks Dan. I would take it to dealer if it’s still under warranty. At some point the more you mess with it, the more ability they have to blame it on you and disclaim coverage.

Yah unfortunately it’s a bad cylinder head . Apparently it is a known issue in the 2011 to 2015 JKs .. the head has an extended warranty up to 150000 miles .

Unfortunately due to covid the supply chain has been disrupted and there are no parts available . Dealer quoted me 2-3 months . F

Filed a claim with Chrysler care and they are going to try to find me a part / expedite but I’m not holding my breath.

Just hope this doesn’t jack up all of the summer wheeling trips I had planned ..

Holy hell. I think maybe I'd throw a takeoff on it before I lost all Summer. That sucks.

Jeep is finally done .. dealership put in a new head .

Battery died in the meantime so I picked up one of these to keep in the Jeep .. works like a charm and can jump like 40 times on 1 charge

Pep boys warranted the battery and I got a new red top free of charge

Lastly, wife and I had time to paint the RC this weekend .. did some paint mixing .. this was closer to Anvil than anything off the shelf

Glad to hear that Dan👍

Those jump start boxes are awesome. Everyone should carry one.
