    Oil pressure running high?

    Similar issue happened to me and it was the pressure sender. never showed low, always bobbed around the 2/3's mark (cant remember the value) & got worse when it warmed up. another thing, check the pcv like breather at the top/rear of the engine, last winter mine clogged with frozen condensation...

    Engine swap worthy?

    Thinking of a motor swap for my tired '95 2.5 yj. I found an 02 2.5 with 27k on it, and my question is will all components be a direct swap for mine? fuel injection, sensors? will my computer work? will I have to make any mods?

    ARG! Head Bolts!

    It was just the plug that was leaking. After considering yanking the head or pulling the engine, I decided to do the hack thing and make a 3 inch hole in the firewall. got it out & the new one in in about 30 minutes. now I just have to rivet a panel to cover my butchery & I'm done. I'm so...

    ARG! Head Bolts!

    West- where would I get a block heater? I really dont want to resort to pulling it, but I dont see how it can be done. I think I might try a different approach in the morning, I may be able to drive a screwdriver into the plug from the transmission tunnel... OR, how about a 3" hole saw through...

    ARG! Head Bolts!

    I woke this morning to find antifreeze all over my driveway, typically this would be the start of a "challenging" day, you know a hose or something stupid. But apon further inspection I found that the "leak" was coming from the rear of the head at the freeze plug, which is about 3 inches from...

    '88 oil leak (spraying)

    1054310 I just had that problem in my 95 wrangler... found ice built up in the pcv breater hose going to the airbox, read online that it can be caused by short trips where the condensation in the engine doesn't have a chance to burn off fully and builds up in that tube, I found mine "spraying"...

    Whats up with my gas mileage?

    1054909 you mentioned a crane cam in the older motor, my experience is that if you swap a cam, you need to fiddle with the carb to match the profile of the cam. If you swapped the carb from the old motor... start tuning!![addsig]

    Looking for exhausts

    1054996 Hey Tug, yeah Mass. requires it, but wouldnt that raise the interior noise as well? I just need an exhaust that is hassle free, cheap, and quiet (as a jeep can be!) -JP[addsig]

    Running and Running.............

    1055005 technically its called dieseling or run-on caused by deposits in the engine that are glowing "hot" and being fueled by a carb that is still providing air & gas to be ignited. usually a combo of: excessive carbon buildup on the pistons; a high idle speed adjustment; or some cars have a...

    1055088 Hey guyz... Thank you soo much for all of the input! BUT, I really need it to be pretty tame, I work & drive all day ALOT, a good part of my day in on my phone. So unfortunately, glasspacks, cat boring, headers, and southern rock arent realistic items for me...(too bad, I wish it was...

    Roof racks for hard top TJ

    1055487 not sure what kind of rack you're looking for, but I fitted a Thule rack to my Hardtop with some "artifical rain gutters" works quite well, I have a 6 pair ski / snowbaord rack on there now, and it holds mountian bikes in the summer. I believe that they offer cargo cages as well, a bike...

    Dash lights

    1055682 take jeepr89's advise & buy enough to replace all of em'. I had to replace my speedo lamp quickly one dark night, and had a mulit-colored dash for quite a while before I got the ambition to replace all of them! ahh... much better now that I match! :roll: -JP[addsig]

    Gauges won't work!

    1055684 well, from a troubleshooting standpoint, find the common that all of the guages share: power? harness secure? computer? its probably something stupid like a loose harness. good luck![addsig]
