1048514 I have just purcahsed a 1990 Cherokee with the 4.0 and love it! The previous owner had an oil leak problem and had the valve cover gasket replaced and the blowby problem fixed. I changed oil on it and it is definitely leaking from somewhere around where the filter housing connects to...

1050195 I just put plugs in this weekend and air filter. I am looking at having an injector cleaning done also. [addsig]

1050353 Well, seems like I am right in the ballpark! Was just hoping for better as I put on 100 miles a day! I really like the Jeep though! If my fuel injection major clean (this is the type where they hook the vehilce up to a machine disconnect the fule and run you on the machine for 45...

1050702 Having been in the computer industry these past 13 years, I have come across many people who use all caps as a practice! Once they are informed that the use of ALL CAPS is considered shouting they usually stop! Thanks! [addsig]

1050723 Ah, I get it now! Just a trim level difference but both are Cherokees! Thanks![addsig]

1050857 I can't take all the credit! I actually have a sweet deal going for me. I have a good friend who has a 3 stall shop where he runs a repair business (and is one of the rare finds in mechanics - honest and goes the extra mile!) so in exhange for me doing computer work for him he lets me...

1050860 Definitely try a mechanical gauge to determine if you really have low pressure. A little oil (trust me I know from personal experience) makes a big mess! If your oil is not low then you probably have a fairly minor leak. With big leaks (again I know) you will notice oil droplets on...

1050864 My Cherokee came with one of those and it actually works well for me. I am a coffee drinker and it holds my "go" cup well! It is black and matches well. I actually did not know it was not factory unitl I saw one for sale on E-Bay.[addsig]

1050865 Correct on the Command Trac difference. As for adjusting timing I would say Yes in the old days (before computers controlled everything) because I experienced that exact situation with an old International 6 cylinder. The manifold was completely cherry red and after adjusting the...

1050890 Snow! I have never lived where there was not snow in the winter! Grew up north of Edmonton Alberta. Have been here in North Dakota for the past 23 years. The best way to do donuts with a FWD car is in reverse! Talk about spin! For traction I have my Craftsman tool chest in the...

1051239 What is "rather long" anyway! My Jeep does not start instantly like other EFI vehicles I have (for instance my 95 Caravan probably turns over twice and it is running whereas the Jeep probably cranks over 6 - 8 times and slowly in my mind BUT it does start!) I had the...

1051240 Hmmmm....do they actually have to pay such an incentive just to get people to drive the werid looking things?[addsig]

1051243 I am also new to Jeeps and to forums like this! I have been in the computer business for 13 years and always swore I would NEVER join one! I was wrong! I just had to find the right one and this is it! Super friendly people - not snooty - somewhat opinionated but aren't we all and...
