...or that is what the sounding diagnosis was at the last meeting. Now I have noticed that when I turn it on, it stalls every time. Then I start it and have to rev it pretty good to get it going. Is that a side effect of the exhaust manifold?
Exhaust manifold leak...

catalytic converter???? might do the same thing my 2 pennies

ying we can fix you leak as soon as i get a little time off. go ahead and pick up the manifold gasket. and start soaking the bolts and nuts with pbr blaster. this will help greatly. should only be about a 3 hr. job max.

I'm not sure the stalling can be related to the exhaust manifold leak. Monte would know better of course.
Also check your fuel filter.

the stalling could be from a vacuum leak
check all the hoses
and intake /carb mounting boltson ur yj there shouold be a replaceable fuel filter on in near
the tank on the frame somewhere
there cheap enough to r/r -
Kevin,
Do you have a 4 cylinder? The rear-most manifold stud likes to break off on them.
I replaced mine a few years ago. You'll be surprised at how the aftermarket gasket compares to the original. It quiets the motor down tremendously. -
Yup 4 cyl. Also Chuck I will get the spreaders from your work sometime soon!They're in my stockroom. No hurry. I don't need to be there when you come either.
