    Part # for the Coolant Temperature Sending Unit 1996 4.0L Classic

    Have been to one dealer today and called a couple of others looking for a Coolant Temp Sending Unit for a 1996 4.0L Cherokee Classic with a coolant temp gauge, NOT the warning light. Drove @ a half an hour to dealer who said he had one in stock. When I got there he showed me a part that look...

    Look...fuel pressure test video

    With key in "On" position gauge needle strikes @ 50 psi for a moment then bleeds down to 40 psi. At idle needle flutters between what looks like 49-50 psi? Even took gauge off of air filter housing to ensure that it was not engine vibration causing needle flutter. The engine had been run about...

    OEM PS return hose, $100...really?

    I have been wrastling the PS return hose on my 1996 Cherokee. It has been leaking since we got the truck last month. I went to replace it with a hose the local auto parts guy gave me, turns out he gave me the wrong size so I found some fuel line laying around and used it. I then posted up on...

    Hosed

    Dumb question of the morning: What issues do you foresee if one used fuel line in place of power steering hose on the return side of the power steering reservoir?

    I'm leaking...make it stop.

    Just bought an '96 Jeep Cherokee 4.0L HO manual transmission (AX-15). Some background. The Cherokee runs great and the odometer read @ 95,000k some weeks ago, when we bought it. It had one owner who provided records of oil changes. maintenance etc. Seems like it is in great shape, however...
