Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Jeepy!!! Hi, Are you trying to read the voltage in the wire going directly from the computer to the ignition module? If so, realize that this is a pulsed DC signal, and you can NOT measure it correctly with a DC voltmeter or multimeter set to DC volts. If you want, you...

RE: Preparing for the Hi, Well, here's a few recent photos of my Jeep Cherokee at a local EVent. Also a photo of my Cherokee as it now sits in my garage awaiting the completion of a transmission/transfer-case swap. I hope to have it driving again by early next week. :mrgreen: -Nick :!:

Wanna see "redneck"? Hi, Yeah, I meant to say that I'm south-west of Austin, in San Antonio. :mrgreen: -Nick :!:

tires and gears Hi, I think Mingez has the Firefox extension called "BBCode" installed. This extension adds the functionality he described in his first post. You can get the extension here...

Re: RE: Hi, Yeah, I'm about 65 miles south of Austin, but I was in Alaska up until this past saturday (June 11th). It was nice experiencing a second winter, but now I'm back in the Texas heat :mrgreen: -Nick :!:

Hi, Sure can... and nothing beats having 500 ft-lbs. instantly from 0 rpm. :wink: :mrgreen: -Nick :!:

Hi, When I was upgrading the front brakes on my cherokee, I also had to decide between slotted, drilled, or slotted/drilled rotors. I was looking to make my front brakes more effective, as my Cherokee weighs over 1000 lbs. more than stock, and the rotors and pads would get very hot. After doing...

Hi, If you say the Jeep has been running hotter than 210 lately without the A/C on, then the problem is a result of your cooling system doing a poor job to begin with. Turning on the A/C just makes things worse as you've got the now hot A/C condensor sitting right in front of the radiator, and...

Hi, Can you define "good" system pressure? The A/C system is designed to run at a specific pressure for optimal results. If the pressure goes to high or too low, it'll still run, but likely not as cold as it should. Sounds normal to me. The cold line going into the firewall is the...

Hi, I'm looking for another Peugeot BA-10/5 transmission for my Cherokee. I know it is an odd request, and I know people like to upgrade to the AX-15s. But if anyone has one they'd like to get rid of, could you PM me or send an e-mail to: nick at driveev dot com Thanks, :mrgreen: -Nick :!:

CJ EXHAUST MANIFOLDS Hi, First of all, Catalytic converters do not do anything about methane gas. Attaching one to yourself would do no good. But the real point to make here is that the volume of gasses you emit is insignifcant compared to the volume of exhaust pouring out of an internal...

Hi, Don't know off hand of any good trails around here, and unfortionately it seems the few Jeep clubs San Antonio once had aren't active anymore :? But If you're in San Antonio you might see an Electric Jeep :wink: -Nick :!:

Hi, So? While this may be true, don't ignore all the other bad aspects of having gobs of emissions comming from millions of tailpipes in our country alone. For example, our health. I don't know about you guys, but quite frequently when I drive my wrangler or Cherokee with the soft top down...

Hi, Sounds like either your fuel delivery system is dumping too much fuel in there to begin with, or your ignition system is not working properly, or all of the above. Things like incorrect spark plug gap, old- high resistance spark plug wires, and/or a weak ignition coil could cause the spark...

Hi, Certain bad exhaust smells are caused by a bad catalytic converter. I think it is mostly a sulfur smell that indicates a bad catalytic converter. If it smells too much like gas, then you're probably just running rich (which is something that should be fixed to prevent future damage to the...

Hi, First thing to do is make sure that nothing which moves is coming in contact with the radiator or surrounding metal or shrouds (like the fan blades, etc...). I know it seems obvious, but a lot of times it is easy to overlook the simple stuff :mrgreen: -Nick :!:

Hi, I agree that it could be the Catalytic converter. However, realize that if it is the Cat. converter, the symptoms should get worse at higher engine speeds, as that is when the back pressure in the exhaust system is the greatest. Another culprit if it is randomly stalling could be the...

RE: Rear Brakes not locking up Hi, The steering gear box is located in the front of the engine compartment on the driver's side of the vehicle. If you have a 6-cylinder engine your air filter box should be above it. Another good way to find the steering gear box is to locate where the steering...

Hi, I assume you are talking about the battery light on the instrument panel and NOT the check engine light? If so, the light is probably comming on when the 12-volt system is dropping below 9 or 10 volts (at which point you are damaging your battery by allowing the voltage to sag to low)...

Diff Questions Hi, Might I suggest the Mozilla foundation's Firefox browser... http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ It is Open Source Software (so it's absolutely free), and I must say this web browser kicks the dated Internet Explorer 6's (well, you know). :mrgreen: -Nick :!:
