First XJ.

All depends on what you want to do, lol. Hey.., it's an '89! If you want to restore it--your list will probably be long. Here's a couple of tips. Introduce a new era set of headlights, with associated harness upgrade. Consider a brand new windshield for better night time clarity.., and hence, new blades. Consider new shocks, and steering stabilizer shock. Graphite your various key locks. LOL.., get an extra set of keys. Copy, and file away anything you can find on this site, links, etc., about trouble shooting RENIX. You might consider getting an extra ECU for it.., store it away wrapped in plastic wrap, aluminum foil, in multiple alternating layers, times 5, 6, or 7ish. (possible EMP protection).

Read the RenX files thread!

Thank you for the responses and thank you for the link to the RenX files thred

Alaksa...are we worried about WWIII? EMP protection? Mmmm, maybe my ECU thats sitting on a garage shelf should be better protected?

Flyfisher, lol, well, you have 'free will' correct? An ounce of prevention, blah, blah, blah. BTW: EMP over your area could simply be a large meteor flying by, or a limited client rogue action when our pants are down. Have you ever read: "Unrestricted Warfare"? Google it. Comprehend 'False Flag' trips? What about that "Magic Bullet" anyway.., and what about the erosion of our nation by traitors within? PR person at our nearby base said it is 'expendable' to a tactical nuke strike. Guess that's why we have F-22's, i.e., they do not need much runway.., i.e., find a parking lot, and land. Bet they are EMP Protected!

BACK TO THREAD, lol: Don't forget to flush out your coolent fluids. Change out all your gear oils. Use proper grade oil for your climate. Change out all filters, i.e., oil, and air. Clean all your ground connections, and add better ground cables. Check your Dist. Cap, and Rotor. Make sure your wheels/tires are properly balanced. (goes a little ways towards preventing the notorious DEATH WOBBLE. In the event of death wobble, check out the subject at kevinsoffroad.com. I had it, and corrected it. Death wobble on an busy icy two lane road would not be fun! In short, get a notebook, make correction entries, noting fluid change dates, etc., so you can better maintain you new old XJ.
