Hi, Yep, there is a vacuum reservoir mounted in the passenger side of the front bumper -- the one on my Cherokee was actually quite large and was an ellipsoid in shape. This is the result of a faulty vacuum check valve and makes good sense. When the engine is working hard (such as pushing...

Hi, Well, since MSN = Microsoft, do you think it is just a coincidence that their coding of the MSN website makes it incompatible with Firefox, IE's biggest competitor? :-) -Nick

RE: #1.. That Hi, Electrical Engineering 8) . Yes, should be having lots of fun :mrgreen: Unfortunately no Jeeps are going to school with me this year... <flame retardant suit on> Actually I should admit that soon I'll be back down to one Jeep. I'm selling my Wrangler. Although I really...

RE: DESPERATE... help please Thanks Guys, I apprieciate it! ...and Bounty, that's just fine with me if it works out for you all. :mrgreen: -Nick :!:

RE: Hood Misaligned. Hi, You still haven't provided the info that I'm looking for :wink: The voltmeter in the dash, like all the analog gauges, is not an accurate instrument. It will be even _less_ accurate if it is one of those crappy bi-metal type gauges that the auto industry loves to use...

Re: RE: Re: RE: Short in Cig Lighter socket? Hi, Then it could be that your Jeep uses a hall-effect sensor and not an inductive sensor. Does your sensor have two or three wires comming out of it (it should have 3 wires if it is a hall-effect type). The other possibillity is that the book you...

Hi, Are they both still wired through fuses or circuit breakers of the proper size? -Nick :!:

Hi, There is at least one piece of *vital* information that you've yet to mention: What does the battery voltage do when you plug something into the cigarette lighter, or, for that matter, turn the radio on and off? I suggest you get a known good digital multimeter on the battery and watch the...

College and a pseudo-farewell? Hi, That is something I had though of in the past, but am trying hard to ignore because it seems to me that it'd be a real pain to fix... :? Thanks, -Nick :!:

Hi everyone, As you may or may not know, I'm just about to start college as a freshmen this fall. I'm really excited to be heading off to Bradley University to start school... though I'm a bit nervous and anxious as I realize that I'm leaving on the long road trip to Illinois Thursday and am...

Hi, Okay, that's what I thought I remember it being like. If I get some time tomorrow, I'll take it apart and see what gives :mrgreen: As far as I know you cannot legally use electric brakes as the main system for braking on a vehicle. The only recent vehicle I've heard of the used electric...

Re: RE: Axle fluid leaking into rear brakes Hi, But do I have to remove the bearing in order to change the outer seal? If so, I'd imagine getting the bearing on and off will be a bit of work... At any rate, I guess I just need to take the axle apart again and take a look... as trying to stop...

Hi, I'm pretty sure I remember there being two seals. The seal that I replaced in the past was pressed deep into the axle tube, about half way between the drum backing plate and the differential. It took a puller and slide hammer to remove the old one, and was a pain in the a$$ to install the...

RE: still on the hunt for a 4.0 TB Hi everyone, I've been having a problem with my Cherokee where axle fluid is slowly leaking out of the passenger side of my rear axle and getting all over the drum brake components (effectively lubricating the drum brake and making it useless). In the past...

Hi, The vacuum lines are not directly part of the problem because AFAIK vacuum is only used to control the vent dampers (and in no way controls the fan motor). You should find the wiring from the fan motor and trace it back to the source (if possible) to check for any loose/corroded...

Re: RE: Stalls ,no spark Hi, So does it knock out the radio, etc. anytime you've *just* plugged something into the lighter outlet or only when you *turn on* the thing that you've plugged in? How much power are you trying to pull through the lighter outlet? -Nick :!:

Hi, Crankshaft Position Sensors are usually either a simple inductive sensor or a hall-effect sensor. For example, the CPS in my '88 cherokee used to be an inductive sensor while the CPS in my '97 Wrangler is a hall-effect sensor. So I believe your '94 Cherokee will have a simple inductive...

Hi, Interesting thread. Ok, so some of the *big* misconceptions I had when I was younger were: - that Microsoft makes good, reliable software - that cars could only be powered by an Internal Combustion Engine - that "Hertz" (Hz) was a unit for measuring the painfulness of an electric shock...

Hi, If your Jeep originally had an oxygen sensor downstream of the catalytic converter and you removed it and/or the catalytic converter your gas mileage will suffer. -Nick :!:

Hi, Back when my Cherokee used to be addicted to gas I could get about 20 mpg out of it. But this required fairly conservative driving and the fact that it has a manual transmission helped a lot. Keep in mind that automatic transmissions are inherently less efficient than manuals and you will...
