JEEP J20 Recalls

The Jeep J20 has 2 recalls covering the 1975 and 1978 model years, with the most serious being a missing secondary throttle return spring on 1978 six-cylinder, two-barrel carburetor models that can prevent the throttle plate from closing, leaving the engine unable to return to idle. The 1975 model year, on trucks equipped with 360 or 401 cubic inch four-barrel V8 engines, has two separate issues: a fuel inlet plug that can work loose and discharge gasoline in a way that creates a fire risk, and a secondary throttle stop lever that can be formed incorrectly and cause the throttle to stick open rather than returning to idle.
