was TSB 18-011-05 (http://www.wkjeeps.com/misc/LX/TSB/TSB_1801105.pdf) performed? if so, a combustion chamber cleaning may help.
as for poor gas mileage, it may be a symptom of whatever is causing the rough idle. winter driving conditions will greatly reduce fuel economy. how was it last winter?
air filter nice and clean?

yes it was that tsb so maybe i will have to perform a cumbustion cleaning my thoughts are this car was babied in a city driving condition before i got ahold of it and the air filter i may replace with a k&n unfortunetly i didnt have it last winter i just took ownership in may of 07 but im wondering is there any othere symptoms to this problem i mean it seems to me like it is a design flaw with the engines in the v6 class that the lx's use im just wondering to myself if there is anything that i can do to eliminate or reduce this

but thank you fnky for replying i appreciate man
