Driving them back to back, the difference between a brand new 1990 4.2 YJ and a brand new 1991 4.0 YJ is what taught me the advantages and disadvantages as a 20 year old. Before that I had thought it was just old car vs. new car differences. I knew the carbed exotics of the time had more power than the US F.I. cars, but hadn't realized the drivability difference. There is something special though about an old pre-emissions carbed sports car. The sounds, the smells. Then you take a long turn too hard and the thing sputters at the apex....
