    Quick question about a 4.0

    87 and later will likely bolt up, the wiring harness changed each year 94, 95, 96 then a major change in later models 97 on. A 95 and a 96 have the same O2 senor (to the best of my knowledge), different connector plugs for the O2 sensor etc. Even early 96 and late 96 have some major harness...

    Plane crashes into IRS building in Austin TX

    Remember that Grand Mother that got tazered for mouthing off at a poLICE officer (lice, bloodsucking parasites)? She got a $45,000 settlement. Maybe $35K of it was your 35K. If you thought she deserved it and you are willing to subsidize it, great for you. Maybe he just got fed up with it...

    Intermit Ignition Failure

    I'm not really familiar with the GC, bit it's likely there are two O2 sensors, one in the exhaust manifold down pipe and one after the catalytic converter. The O2 sensor after the cat is a known trouble spot, the wires get ripped loose and cook on the exhaust. Code 32 throws me a little, are...

    high centered

    Learned to drive stuff like that at an angle, usually works out better for me. Though I have smashed more than a few mufflers.

    Bad stuff, not that I concur with his methods, but I can understand being frustrated to the point of Kamikaze.

    headlights staying on

    Might have something to do with the typical Jeep courtesy light function. If you turn off the ignition then the headlights, the headlights stay on for a few minutes (timer). Designed to give you some light to make it out of the garage or to the front door. If you turn off the headlights before...

    Plane crashes into IRS building in Austin TX

    Other than the religious rant, the guy makes more than little sense. The laws are made by the few, to control the many. If you have the guts, make two lists (try to be objective). One list is, what has the government done for me. The next list is, what has the government done to me (and what...

    Intermit Ignition Failure

    Without an open signal from the door opener (key fob), my security module deactivates the ASD relay or interrupts the ASD circuit. There are more than a few types of security modules out there (even OEM).

    Intermit Ignition Failure

    Pretty sure the cam position sensor and the CPS share a driver in the PCM. If something is shorting or making a poor contact. the 5 volt index voltage to the CPS and the cam position sensor may be low. I'd check the cam position sensor voltage. Then like SteelHeadz recommended, the ASD circuit...

    4x2 conversion question

    If you seriously overheat an AW4 or let all the fuid leak out and run it dry, it may fail. It is IMO, one of the better automatics ever made. An aux oil cooler is likely mandatory for mudding, a transmission temperature gage nice. A cubic yard of mud is a ton, pushing all that extra wieght...

    STARTER ISSUE -1996 Cherokee Sport

    Intermittent problems can drive you nuts. If it would just crap out completely, it would likely be easier to troubleshoot. Starter brushes coated in oil sometimes make contact, sometimes don't (starter function can get really erratic). If you get any juice through the brushes at all, it often...

    STARTER ISSUE -1996 Cherokee Sport

    There is a starter relay in the PDC and a wire that goes down from under the front of the PDC, through a small connector (I think or maybe a splice) near the PDC, down the passengers side of the motor to the solenoid. Besides being way too small, the wire is vulnerable to damage. Second thought...

    Where to find a good on/off switch

    Problem solved, but maybe next time take a look at these. Sierra Madre Collection :: Hella Fog Light Switch Easy to find (in the dark or bouncing down a dirt road) and switch, pretty much unbreakable and nearly bullet proof. I have some of the same switches you ended up with for my driving...

    Now that hunting season is over

    Thanx for the feedback, not that big of a deal anyway, I was just curious. Some materials just seem to glow in the moonlight, camo or not. I actually bought some soap awhile back that (supposedly) reduces the glow. Hunting Fox, Pigs and Yotes, sound, scent and movement is more likely to spook...

    Tips, help: Trans. fluid change out...

    Figures, I guess the only alternative is to drop the pan. You may want to check out the filter anyway. Or maybe go to one of those places that pump the fluid out of the dipstick/and fill tube. If it has the original fluid in it, Chrysler says it's Ok to mix later (ATF 4) fluids with older...

    Tips, help: Trans. fluid change out...

    You likely have a list of recommended fluids in your owners manual, those fluids are unlikely to cause any grief, the transmission was designed to work well with them. I pull the drain plug every year (in my XJ AW4) and replace whatever comes out, you never get it all, the torque converter holds...

    PA XJ saying "hey"

    I also have an 88, if you need any electrical help (which is likely) I've been through 90% of the wiring (in the Renix models) at one time or another. I actually bought my 87 new and replaced it with the 88 after parking my 87 on the roof.

    Now that hunting season is over

    Hunting season isn't over, it's just time for Fox and Yotes. That Camo parachute is a good idea, I'd been toying with the idea of a surplus military vehicle camo cover and decided it was just to heavy. What you have looks light and easy to set up. I regularly park on well used wild pig...

    Rattle snakes anyone?

    I was sitting in a deck chair, fishing a buddies pond in S.C. I'd found a nice spot in the sun. I looked down and laying right next to me, stretched out straight, was a Copperhead. He was right between me and the Beer cooler. They say they only get a few feet long, this one looked a whole lot...
