    Hello,... Funny you should ask. I've been away for awhile but, I've been starting the jag every 2 weeks or so. Letting it idle and shifting the gears without leaving the garage. Idles smooth in park @ 1100/1200 rpm. In Drive it drops to 750/800, not smooth but OK.
    The gas smelled old and was almost empty so I decided to test drive it to the gas station. Didn't accelerate well but was able to keep up with traffic. Got to the station and filled both tanks with the good stuff. Seemed like it was going to be OK so I decided to run some errands. Big mistake. Was never able to get above 30 mph and eventually stopped running all together. Called the wife, etc., etc.
    Let it sit for a few hours and went back after it. It started and got me home at about 25 mph.
    Don't know what to think but beginning to believe it's not fuel related.

    Bruce, I never got this message until today. My jag was down for a month or two with a fried tranny, but i'm all fixed up and back to driving. I live by king soopers right now, looking for a better place to move to.

    Hi Mirek, I live on top of Lookout Mtn., back behind the Boettcher Mansion on Colorow Rd. Maybe we can get together for coffee or something this weekend. I have to wait to see if Loveland opens or not to know what my schedule will be (volunteer ski patrol). I'll check in with you on Friday.
    Best, Bruce
