So i was pulling my featherlite trailer the other day with my jeep and the temp gauge went up so i pulled over and looked under the hood and the fan wasn't turning very fast.. That's the first problem.. Second is i got in and started it back up and the gauge went back down to normal... So i...

Yeah i haven't got on it yet i figured id wait a couple thousand miles to pull anything or to hammer down... I was wondering some of the possible weaknesses of sitting so long?

UPDATE!!! after replacing the fuel pump and getting the distributor on the right notch it fired right up!! I been driving it for few days now and it runs like a champ you can't even tell it has sit for 7 years... I'll post some pics and videos to show it off lol

no light Im thinking the park brake switch might not work.... this thread kinda relates to my other thread. usually my right tire only spins but when i did this it was the left one spinning... i looked up the diff in my truck it shows regular axle... not posi or limited slip but why was the...

yeah i feel pretty stupid but the other day i set the brake and when i came back out i just hopped in tried to go... i figured i wasn't moving due to the snow piled up in front of my front tires when i stopped so i dug the snow out and managed to pull out but it felt really weird that's when i...

almost sounds cheaper to put a used limited slip? like a stock from a newer model.... that sounds pretty expensive and you can probably get a whole used one for cheaper.... cause i don't even think mine is limited slip

so we had some snow and i noticed even with weight in the bed (about 500lbs) it helped a lot but i figure i need a locker.... i have the 10.25 rearend with 3.55 gears and one tire only spins.... how much is a locker? do they lock up in forward and reverse? and how hard is it to do? I've shimmed...

yeah i thought the shsh sound was normal but one day stuck at a stoplight i realized it was still doing it with the brake held down... so i while idling i cupped my hand around the push rod on the pedal going through firewall and it was hissing so I'd try that and if it is pulling then then...

so i been noticing a hissing sound when i push on the brakes and figured it was only leaking when pushing the brakes... i cupped my hand around the push-rod and noticed it sucking air while idling.... this could explain why Im not getting the mileage i would expect... my question is that is...

looks good man great details and pics

mine used to do the same exact thing and i replaced the tps (throttle position sensor) and to change it you have to remove the throttle body so while you got it off give it a good cleaning paying close attention to vacuum ports cause they are so small the plug up easy... I'd almost bet that fix...

started tracing wires from the door switches and behind the passenger door switch where it runs into the main harness behind the kick panel wires were melted together from kick panel rubbing....

when i replaced the switches it fixed the problem for awhile.... it's something else now i have two New door switches New headlight switch... so Im assuming it has to be a short unless someone can point me in a better direction...

and i completely unhooked my remote start/ keyless entry too to no avail even tho i didn't have it even hooked up to my dome light circuit.... when i got the truck the cargo lights were removed and interior lights unhooked.... i figured they did it because the door switches were bad... i...

huge shot in the dark here but think a speed sensor could cause this or something electrical on my tranny? cause when i unhook the interior light fuse my mileage goes blank overdrive light flashes and speedo stops working.... so they are obviously on the same circuit.... i just can't keep...

got two brand New door switches and headlight switch... still stays on.... this sucks.

i have New door switches Im thinking headlight switch is bad because if you move it just right the dash lights go completely out... I'll replace the headlight switch and see what happens.

so i went to my moms today and when i got out my interior lights and cargo lights stayed on.. i have replaced both door jamb switches already to no avail. my question is there any common places this circuit shorts out?

ok so i got it timed correctly today and i think since it sit so long the fuel pump is out.... this is turning into a major project....

i guess once i get it to actually run for the 3 seconds I'll tow it to the dealer and just pay their ridiculous$100 for one key!!

and does anyone know how to bypass the anti theft? i lost the original key and had one cut from the vin but it supposed only let it run for like 3 seconds

ok i put wires on counter clockwise... i ran out of time ended up having to go to work.... Im gonna go to tdc and see if the numbers on harmonic balance are lined up... i was kinda rushing witch is my first mistake... I'll try re-timing it and let you guys know.. i work till Sunday tho... i wish...

it's a4.0 99 cherokee 2wd i could see the valves moving when i was looking in the cylinder for the piston to come to tdc so the chain isn't broke...

ok so I've had this jeep sitting for 7 years and decided to get it back on the road.. when it got parked i had just put a used motor in it and never hooked it up. well we hooked everything up and before trying to turn it over i pulled the plugs sprayed lube in the cylinders and primed the oil...

ok so i have my 95 F250 but i recently started working on my 99 jeep cherokee.... do i need to go through the joining another forum thing? I've kinda grown fond of this forum and the people here are cool and seem to know what they're talking about (most) lol.... so could i ask jeep questions on...

yeah mine shuts off at 15 minutes but it say programmable up to 25 minutes and when it shuts off you can start it right back.... when my door lock actuators Im gonna hook up all the bells and whistles lol i was even considering making the trunk button open my toolbox but Idk

they have trunk pop feature that could be wired to anything and bet it would work.... it would just send the pulse to the electric seat instead of trunk.... I bet it would work....

just installed remote start on my truck today and i gotta say it was very simple! I think anyone with this generation of ford should do it! only 6 wires and it was starting right up! only regret is not doing it at the start of winter.... anyone interested in doing it just ask and I'll give...

Would there be any benefits to running high Octane Gas and Octane booster if I was to advance the timing just a degree or two? Or however it works retard it a little? Would you see any gains in power or mileage?

Im thinking about just putting dumps coming out the back... not sure I might extend it back a little but not much... next payday Im gonna tac some dumps on and see if i like it and go from there.... I'll post a New video when i get it finished
