Hi all.
Just a heads up on a problem that's a subject af a Chrysler/Jeep Tecnical Service Bulletin.
There have been a number of Fuel filters fitted to these vehicles that have the 'inlet' and 'outlet' arrows embossed incorrectly on the top! This causes mis-firing under load and other driveability issues that aren't evident under idle conditions. Very often there are no dtc's logged and if there are they bear no connection to the actual fault. The problem seems to develop quite a while after the suspect filter's been fitted so it's not obviously connected to a recent service.
Hope that helps someone from days of head scratching!!
Cheers guys - Paul.
