Hello, I have a 1988 Cherokee Jeep 4.0 automatic 6 cyl. 4x4 and I had to leave it at the airport for 13 days while I was on a trip. When I picked my jeep up I drove right home without any problems. However, the following day my battery was dead . . . knowing I had an old battery I went and...

Hello, Thank you for your reply . . . after I wrote you I decided to work on my Jeep and took it for a test drive only to realize I did not fix the problem after stepping on the brake with acceleration I ended up on an embankment a tilt away from a deep ditch (mountain roads). Of course there...

Hello, I have a 1988 Cherokee Laredo automatic 4x4 6cyl. Lately, I have been having acceleration problems. It began with the surging problems that so many other Jeeps have complained about . . . as I have replaced (brand new) TPS and the Idle control sensor, cleaned throttle body, check...

Hello, Thank you for your response. Apparently, the noise is not coming from my steering power box, however, I read a post on how tight should my serpentine belt be . . . could mine be to tight then? What I did was measure where my old belt was when I took it off and when I replaced it I put...

Hello, Recently, I changed my water pump and put a new serpentine belt on. I felt it was successful (since I had never put a water pump or belt on before). My Jeep does not over heat at least in the few miles I have driven it. However, I hear a low sounding errrrrr when driving it that I have...

Well, thanks to all that replied to my post. In my last post I mentioned items that had REV and reverse stamped on the cover as I removed bolts to my water pump I came across such stamped on my parts. I removed the water pump and now have to put it all back together. Thanks for your...

Thank you for your knowledge . . . I am a bit ignorant on this kind of stuff. It has always been on a wing of a prayer. Anyway, my book says, some vehicles use a serpentine drive belt and have a reverse rotating water pump coupled with a viscous fan assembly. These items have reverse stamped on...

Hello, Well, my Jeep made it home but, as I entered my parking spot I saw some steam like coming from the engine. When I opened up my hood antifreeze came pouring out of the bottom. I am assume my water pump no longer functions. My Jeep has sat for quite a few days because of the rains my area...

Thank you for the two responses I recieved regarding, my water pump. I have replaced numerous of things on my jeep since I have owned it. I feel I could replace it myself, but I cannot replace it till the end of the month, and if I need help I will certainly write. I live a long ways from town...

Hello, My Jeep is a 1988 Cherokee Lardeo 4x4 automatic 4.0 straight 6 with a 154.000 miles on it (rebuilt). I have had it for 16 years. My water pump needs replacing as it has been leaking for awhile. I have had it replaced before (long ago). My auto part store tells me it is a part from...

Hello, Bounty_Hunter, Thank you for your response, and yes, that price was from a junk yard. In fact it was the local junk yard in Colville WA. I am not sure when you say, around here. Are you on the East Coast ? I am quite grateful for all of the information that has been supplied to me...

Hello Bounty_Hunter, Thank you for responding. I checked with my local auto yard and they told me 300.00/350.00 for the transfercase depending on make? And $ 500.00 for the transmission. I did have someone come out and look at them. They are both in the 1992 Jeep (manual) I use as my parts...

Hello, I have a good 5 speed transmission and transfercase and was wondering what both of these items would be worth if I were to sell them. At this point they are still in the Jeep I use as spare parts (at least the parts that are interchangeable). Peace, Jewel

Hello, Well, The fans do interchange though the other eletric cooling fans motor is burned out as well. I found one at the auto yard and plan on purchasing it. Meanwhile I noticed when I have the hood up and the Jeep starts to overheat (at this point I have my engine turned off . . .cooling...

Well, thank you for your advice to whom replied. My Jeep is still overheating. On a label on my fan states to basically be careful because the fan can kick on when you turn the motor over/running. At this point I am assuming my fan is not working. I remember when my jeep got hot the fan would...

Hello, My 1988 Cherokee Jeep is overheating. So, I put a new thermostat in it and I have a good radiator. However, it still over heats I turn the heater on to take the heat off etc. When I was driving home it dawned on me I do not hear my fan kick on and haven't for awhile. Can some one tell...
