    No pep past 60 mph...

    Today I was driving my Commander on the freeway and going around 60 mph. So I tried to speed up to pass a car and very little happened. It seems as it is very sluggish going over 60, very little response. I do have a 3.7 QT1, I have never noticed this before any ideas? I have changed my plugs and oil recently, just trying to toubleshoot this...

    Just a quick check here, did you gap you plugs correctly? Also make sure nothing came loose push on all the plug wires to make sure they are still seated on the plugs all the way.

    Yeah, check the gap on the plugs. Same thing happened to me. I went to auto zone, bought new plugs, and watch them gap them...problem solved.
