1990 XJ -I have snapped the lamp sockets on the rocker switches - Rear wiper, Trans Comfort. They no longer snap into the back of the switch holder. They use a #37 bulb. Has anyone replaced these sockets? Are there any aftermarket replacements ? I am guessing they may be unique to the XJ. I do...
Well I need a new wiper motor for the 1990 XJ. The original motor is wrapped in a rubber boot. Naturally it fell to pieces during the removal. The service manual makes a statement - printed in bold - to be sure to not damage the boot. Of course the new motor does not come with the boot. Does...
I am putting a dual booster in a 90 XJ. Things are going fine. I can use the four existing MC to PV lines ( 2 from old set up and 2 from the new MC ) but in order to join them I need 2

- 1990 XJ, Power steering, AW4. The U-joints on the steering shaft are done for. So I purchased a replacement. I have a couple of questions about removal/replacement. Do I have to unbolt/remove the steering box ? The new shaft is the same length as the installed old shaft. I do not see a way to...

After 26 years the exhaust manifold has developed a crack. Does any one have any experience or know of any information on the Renix exhaust manifold from 1aauto ?

The wiper motor was running slow so I took apart and cleaned the "grease"- more like dried caulk and relubed. I jumpered it and it runs fine - but it needs new brushes. Has anyone replaced the brushes on this era wiper and where did you get the brushes ?
Thanks
The factory fan started vibrating awful. I purchased a Dorman replacement from Advance Auto. First off it has fewer blades and required an adapter (supplied) to correctly attach the pig tale. All looked well until I noticed that when it comes on it blows the hot air out of the radiator. I...
The XJ is a 2001 model with ABS.The shop manual says to bleed the system normally and then use a DRB tool and cycle the solenoids followed by a second normal bleed. Is the use of the DRB tool necessary? Is this a dealer only activity ? Can the solenoids and pump be cycled without the tool? If I...

I am trying to clean(refresh) the ground connections for my lights. The shop manual wiring diagram says the ground attachment is on the "left shock tower". Unless I am missing something I do not see this attachment point. It must be somewhere I am missing. Does anyone with a...
OK- the hole in the axle bracket for the track bar has wollowed out. Time to drill a slightly larger hole and use a larger diameter bolt. This means that the sleeve in the track bar bushing needs to be drilled to a larger ID. For the folks who have done this did you take the track bar to a...

My fuel pressure drops to zero within a minute of pump stopping. After searching for this I found a thread discussing an easy fix using an external check valve from a BMW. Does anyone know the year and model BMW this check valve is used for?
Thanks

I was recalibrating the TPS so I had the ignition on but the engine not running. I was hearing a hum from the passenger side of the engine. By using a piece of hose to my ear I tracked the hum to the alternator. What would make the alternator hum with just the ignition...
1990 xj, AW-4, 4.0 liter
I just replaced the distributor cap and rotor. The contact posts inside the cap were all worn on one side, not in the middle or across the entire post. As you look in the cap ( cap upside down) they were all worn on the right edge. The rotor had carbon /pitting on both...

I know this may be a trivial problem, but what will clean the brown crud out of the coolant overflow bottle? It just laughs at Crud Cutter, dishwasher soap, acetone, etc. It is a pain to clean with a baby bottle brush.
