Sounds good. I will be leaving early though. I have to be back in Richmond by 3 so I will be leaving around 1 or 1:30.

I have a problem guys. I just got my Liberty back from Jeep. It was in for the torque converter recall on CRD's. The DUMB @$# that did the work didn't put the Jeep back together properly.

We are not talking about one or two small things. I have two wire harnesses that where not plugged back in. The exhaust hangers where not put back together. I found a black hose running from the top of the transmission hanging loose. And now my check engine light is on. :evil:

I could only find where one electrical plug snaps in. The other I think my have to go on top of the transmission. The hose I don’t have a clue. I think it may be to the breather element. I looked all over for the placement but, can't find anything to plug it into.

With all this going on I don't think I should go. I can't risk the damage running with this can lead to. If I’m right and the hose is to the breather. I will take on water the way its hanging. I'm sorry guys but I'm going to have to sit this one out. I really hate to but I can’t go. :cry:

Jason that sucks. I'm in no hurry to have my recall done. Take it back and demand that they fix it today. That way you can still come out and play tomorrow.

Hey Jason, the hose that is hanging down may not be an issue at all. On deisel motors (on big trucks) the hose lets pressure off the motor or something like that. Anyhow the hose may have always been there, but it was probably hung up instead of hanging loose.

That's all right Richard. Things come up. We waited for 30 minutes and I tried to call you but I must have your old number so please PM with your new number. The three of us made it to the next meeting point and nobody was there either. Anyway we ventured out at 9:30, played till 5:30 (Hit 4 trails, including a side trip into West By God Virginia) and then headed back towards Va Beach.
