Tappan Zee / Tom, sorry I had to get off the

phone the other day so quickly. We were on the way home from Yosemite in the jeep and just as you called the check engine light came on. I was talking to Annie and at the same time wondering if the engine was going to explode leaving us on the side of the road 400 miles from home. I managed to get to an Auto Zone and replace a part so all was well. The engine had started to miss fire on a trail in the middle of nowhere but seemed to fix itself and then ran fine for the rest of the off road driving. Then it started acting up a bit for an hour or so prior to your call. The phone rang and the light came on within seconds of each other. Jeeps are like boats in a couple of ways. One is "bring lots of money" and the other is that you had better be able to fix them in out of the way places. It was good hearing from you. Denny and I are glad everything worked out storm wise. Take care.
