    Fuel Injector Reccomendations

    +1 for fiveomotorsports. I bought mine (Bosch 19lb. yellow tops) from their Ebay store about a year ago. Shipped and delivered quickly and came with new o-rings. Made a huge difference in the way tho old 4.0 runs.

    Newbie -two questions

    Also, try having a friend turn the steering wheel quickly from side-to-side while you look underneath and see if anything is loose or rubbing. Mine sort-of did the same thing and it was the tie rod end that connects the drag link to the pitman arm.

    Installing new keyless transmitter need assistance with wiring. '89 Laredo

    I hate to be the one to tell you this, but what you bought won't work. It is an on/off switch not a keyless entry. You could hook it up to a relay and either lock OR unlock your doors, but not both. If you are looking for a good, inexpensive keyless entry, try this one...

    Got another XJ, need some help with its "issues"

    Just a hunch, but I'd say with a "wet" engine bay and mushy, soft brakes, I'd check for a brake fluid leak first and then see if it is the steering. Good Luck!

    I think I fixed my Junk, I think.

    It could be your alternator. As they get older and the brushes wear the output will drop if they get too hot. If the output drops too far it will screw with the fuel injection and sensors and the like, causing some of the symptoms you described.

    89 xj

    If it's a 4.0 with an automatic then it's probably a Peugot. The RENIX motors are a bit quirky as Gunner said, but they will run for ever with a bit of TLC. I've got 176K on my '89 and it runs like a champ. I chage the oil/oil filter every 2500 to 3000 miles and tune it up once a year. Depending...

    94 Seat Help

    Thanks for the reply. I'll try them, but if they don't have one I may see what it would cost to ship the one you have. As fo the welding...It's been welded to death over the last 5 years. It's now just worn out.

    94 Seat Help

    I'm trying to help my disabled neighbor out. He has a 94 Grand Cherokee that has a broken frame on the cushion part of the front drivers seat. I've checked the bone yards in my area and out of 7 yards, there was only one Grand and it had no seats! Does anybody have a front seat or at least the...

    94 Seat Help

    Thanks for the reply. The problem is that the mounting points on the bottom have been ripped out on three of the four corners. He has to push really hard aginst the seat to get his legs in since his knees don't bend too far. I have already welded the frame where I can (several times over the...

    Got serious about cooling issues

    What kind of trailer are you towing that only weighs 1500# loaded?

    WTF?!?!?

    The fact that more than one of your guages was acting up and you had a miss-fire makes me think it could be a loose or bad ground also. Check the grounding strap that goes from the block to the firewall. Be sure it's clean and making good contact. Also check your battery terminals and cables to...

    Replaced alternator and volts still low...

    I just went through a very similar situation with my alternator (read: alternators). One thing I did while I had it apart for the second time to replace the bad "New Reman", was to add a ground wire from the neg. battery terminal to the upper mounting bolt for the alternator. It has made a huge...

    Cracked exhaust header

    Ahh, another misplaced New Yorker!! Yes. You need to remove the intake as well as the exhaust manifold in order to replace the gasket. It isn't as difficult as it looks, it's just hard to reach some of the bolts underneath. When you put it back together be sure to put the exhaust manifold on...
