    '05 TJ no start

    I have an 01TJ. It ran fine to the store, but wouldn't start to get home. I had the same issues, my problem was the throttle position sensor failed. So the Jeep turned over but never started.

    Grand Cherokee Diff Noise?

    It sounds strange but in my car I heard a similar noise. It was the nut that held down the spare tire. Not sure if this applies to a JGC

    1978 cj5 AMC 304 no oil pressure

    What do you mean by "we will have oil pressure and then the next time we drive there will be no pressure". My jeep has an issue where once the engine is warm, if I shut off the jeep. Ten minutes later when I turn on the jeep it has no oil pressure. I know it's not a sensor issue since the...

    Check engine light

    Check the on board diagnostic. Turn the key to ON but don't start the car. Then back to OFF, than back to ON. Repeat 3 times, this will run a diagnostic and give you the error code.

    Arrrrgh! Lost my wheel lock key

    A few years ago on my Cherokee I had lug nuts that were stripped. I took a dermal and cut a notch into the lug nut. Then I took a chisel and hammer and tapped the nut off. I remember it was a pain, but it worked. I think there was a post where someone said to use a 13/16 impact socket and an...

    I had the same issue. A 2001 4.0 manual. Mine hesitated at start up and I needed to give it has when I started it up. I was the battery, which makes no sense. Check that the battery terminals are clean.

    Why am I leaking oil?

    It's just motor oil. So normally when you change the oil the filter, the filter seal gets oil on the seal. 1. Check the oil filter and see if it's just loose. 2. If the filter is tight, remove it (turn counter clockwise). Pug a rag under the filter, it will leak oil. Check the seal on the...
