Honestly I'm very new to the site so 1st off Hi.
I have been searching the last two nights when I get off work and I'm not finding much I havent tried.
Basically the situation: Friday the 1st snow hit in pittsburgh and I had lots of fun in FullTime 4x4. just basically parking lot stuff and hills no dumb stuff.
I parked the JeeP for the night outside and the next morning I went to start( I have the usual XJ that takes about 5-7 secs of cranking to fire-Hope thats normal???)
No-Start?- I checked my batt-okay, no Fog light or other accessories on, in Park(tried neutral and other gears) put the XantraX pak on and jumped it-NO start!!! The engine cranks all day! pulled the intake-nogo!! tried the schrader valve and no drip-but the ignition was not in ACC(should it have been for fuel pressure?) THE fuel pump engages when key is turned, so I tried starting fluid twice--nope
So i checked the Brand new Wires by taking one off and putting next to ground=no SPARK! tried the coil<->dissy yup no spark!! So I got brave and had my Wife crank engine whil I held the coil= yeah I'm still here-NO SPARK!
starter cranks might not have fuel psi (not sure yet havent pulled plugs to check.) pulled cap-rotor turns when cranking-timimg chain-good.
I bought a new coil, new ICM and stil......NO SparK!!! SO I took back the overly priced; Shiny ICM and kept the coil for a suv.
All fuses are good, Brand new Die Harder Battery, cleaned terminals, get oil pressure and all lights work. I did however put jeep in reverse on the PRNDL and put ignition in ACC; no backup lights---BUT wont start in Neutral.......
**I now have a remote starter bridged to the solenoid for ease of trouble shooting since i'm alone outside.** I also double check by starting in truck anytime I change something...
Now I'm not sure how and where to check these things i've read on here tonight:
1. CPS- where- how do i check- and any recommendations?
2. TPS-where-how to check- any recommendations?
3. NSS- I hear it can be cleaned? What and Where the heck is it and how do i get it off- I heard it's $300- should we be cleaning something that cost that much? is it internal/external?
4. Where are the Fusible Links in this 90 XJ?????
I cant seem to figure out how there is no spark coming from the coil??? what else could I check? Please GuRUs HELP!
I myself am a 1st Gen Mx6 owner and experienced Tuner- My 1st Jeep and I thought I was getting a reliable Machine for the winter-1st day it snows and she's bit*hing out on me Already
I am off work Thursday and Friday. I have spent almost a total of a complete 17 hours in the 20 degree weather outside since last Friday- no joke!
I have brand new batt, wires, plugz, coil, K&N, suspension, exhaust, and lube since i bought the JeeP in October....How could this be happening to me??? ohh yeah
