I only use napa gold (wix) and I run delo 400 LE which needs to be changed to Rotella T6 for the winter. If there's any discussion why I use these oils, here is what I went off of. (Long read)...

Yeah I know, as it's my only vehicle I can't take the time off of work to put a new engine in again.... Honestly I'm gonna have to take my chances with just changing the oil and filter for now. Somebody told me that the gears on the oil drive pump are aluminum, so hopefully it doesn't do as much...

That's a horrible answer...... I don't like you..... lol Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

And I need recommendations on a new cam, I plan on keeping this jeep long term, it's a southern vehicle without an ounce of rust I brought from VA to ME. I plan on the long run to stroke the engine (after replacing the head with a 7120) and building this virgin beauty into a off roading machine...

So little history, I bought this engine which is from an 87-90 MJ bored .30 and about 60k on a rebuild, and put it in my wife's '01 XJ with a few modifications. I bought the engine fairly cheap because the P.O. noticed wear on the dizzy gear when he went to sell it. I've been having problems...

We'll the p1196 and my check engine light went away on there own, it was replaced with a misfire cylinder 1-10... I notices the crack on the intake is a little bigger so my #1 priority at this point is to replace the intake from the JY

IMO the highlighted to me sounds like heatsoak.

Ok, so the jeep runs a little rough, I'm gonna start with the O2 sensor. The running lean should be fixed once I replace the intake (P.O. over tightened the bolts and cracked it) any other places I should start? I also tested the TPS and at w.o.t. it wouldn't go over 3.25V I tested the old TPS...

Wether or not that was the root of the whole problem remains to be seen.... Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

We'll the jeep is back on the road, believe it or not it needed a starter.... the solenoid crapped out and must have been shorting out the pcm... He replaced the starter and everything else went away... I no longer have a "no bus" the cel just came back on after 25 miles, I'll find out what that...

So... the guy at the garage tells me that he hooked a jump pack to it and the jeep started right up...... he said my battery is junk and once I get a new battery then he can test further.... what doesn't make sense to me is when I jumped it last night it made it do a no bus again....

Well so since it's my only vehicle and i don't have the proper knowledge or equipment to diagnose the jeep I am bringing it to a garage for them to diagnose it... But something new I discovered.... at low voltage the jeep acts like it normally would with a low battery... the starter just...

Huh? Edit... Oh BS = build sheet.... took me a minute lol Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Mine is a '01 with no abs and a d35... made me real real nervous hauling the u-haul trailer that weighed more than the jeep up from VA to ME especially through the hills in PA. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

So everything has been intermittent no matter what I have done, I.E. sometimes all the gauges work, sometimes only the gas gauge works. But one new symptom is the front 02 sensor relay has started rapid fire clicking even after swapping relays... QUOTE=lawsoncl;246526911] As can bad or missing...
