fuel mileage sucks on a wheeling rig, carb'd fuel mileage really sucks
you smell like you just got done mowing the lawn every time you drive
you usually get better ignition with efi
TBI aside, crappy stock efi intake manifolds are better flowing than the most kickass of carb intakes
efi fuel pumps have to be replaced some times, carb fuel pumps have to be replaced much more frequently
plug in a laptop to see whats wrong
you can put a whole bag of chips on efi
its just a better option, especially for something that gets parked 340 days out of the year. You don't want to mess with it the few times you get to use it.
