    1975 Factory CJ Column Mount Tachometer Wiring

    I recently acquired a factory column mount tach for my CJ. Can anyone enlighten me on the wiring scheme? Four wires - Black Orange Red Red/White I am guessing black is ground, orange is the distributor, red is power, and red/white is accessory power. Am I right? Scott

    O/T Cleaning Tractor Hydraulics

    Does anyone have any tried and true suggestions for cleaning the hydraulic system in an old tractor? I have an old '62 Ford 2000 that has been giving me some hydraulic shake so I decided to clean and do a rebuild. The fluid chamber is full of sludge (probably my problem). How can I remove the...

    Latest Jeep Alarm/Anti-Theft Device

    I've yet to have the first problem with this device. Liked it so much that I got three. No wiring or codes to remember and installation is a "snap". Only downside is the drool and space requirements. :wink: Looks like they're ready to go Jeepin'! Good thing I hid the keys. Scott

    Weber Carb Help - Runs Too Rich

    I have a stock Weber 32/36 on a 258 that continually runs rich. It shows rich on my air/fuel gauge and with a voltmeter (.8 volts). I am on the verge of stumbling with the air fuel mix - in other words, I have leaned it out as far as I can. Sooty tailpipe and black "puffs" on startup. Here...

    Electric choke ping/diesel with Weber carb

    1071042 Found this forum a few days ago and man, what have I been missing! Here is my dilemma. I have an 84 CJ7 258 that has been modified by removing the Carter carb and all of the smog/computer hoses, connections , etc. and put in a Weber. Everything was great for a while (weeks?) but gas...

    Hard to get out of 4WD

    1071084 After years of relatively few problems with my CJ7, things are starting to give me trouble. I have a T176 transmission with a Dana 20 and after a hard pull in 4WD I have great difficulty getting it back to 2X. What should I look at first to determine the cause? No clutch slippage...

    Aluminum 4.2 valve covers

    1071173 I've waited long enough, tired of the oil seepage and want to make the move to an aluminum valve cover. Lot of 'em out there, any better than another? How many holes need to be tapped? Scott[addsig]

    Fuel Pressure Regulator

    1071542 Can anyone recommend an inexpensive fuel pressure regulator for use with the Weber carb? I can't seem to find what I am looking for. I used to have one on an old Ford that you could actually "dial in" the desired pressure. Are these a types of the past? or am I looking for the wrong...

    TFI Upgrade Suggestion

    1071544 Made the switch this weekend and noticed a much improved idle but would be lying if I said I noticed any performance difference. Hoping for better mileage and a few more tweaks in the timing may get me both. My suggestion for this upgrade is simple but ended up being the most time...

    Add-A-Leaf Kits

    1071715 Does anyone have any experience with the add-a-leaf kits? I want a temporary solution to the sagging front end on my CJ until I can get the lift kit that I want. This would run me around $100-$150 range and seems a good solution. Should I just add to the front or all around? Any...

    BAD Fuel Pressure Regulator

    1071878 I picked up a fuel pressure regulator from NAPA the other day for my Weber. An adjustable 1-5 lbs by Mr. Gasket (only one I could find). Idle went way down, no carb seepage from extra pressure and I thought, ok, I see how this could be helpful. But I never could get power at higher...

    Fuel Filter Swap

    1071879 My 84 CJ has a Weber bypassing the computer and any computer assist vacuum needs. My question is simple but I wanted some feedback. The fuel filter that is on there now with the 2 outlets, one going to the carb and the other going to the canister, can it be replaced by another in-line...

    Tachometer Timing

    1072263 This all started with what I thought was timing but was actually a bad fuel pressure regulator. What is the simplest way to check my engine speed while setting my timing? I don't have a tach on my CJ 258 (no ECU) and with the Weber and the TFI upgrade I'm either pinging or dieseling at...

    Weber on ebay

    1073047 Ran across this carb while doing some surfing at ebay. Just thought I would post the link here in case anyone was interested. I have no connection with this auction - I have seen postings lately by individuals looking for a deal on a Weber - just thought this may be what they are...

    Fuel Pressure Regulators

    1073255 I have learned quite a bit about in-line fuel pressure regulators in the last few days. Thought that I would pass on what I discovered in order to keep other Weber owners from going through the same mess. I went through 2 in-line diaphram-type regulators (1-5 psi dial-in) in the last...
