    Wheel interchange

    87 2.5 no spark or fuel pump

    I looked at a solid 1987 Comanche for sale today. It's a 4x4 5 speed 2.5 engine. Engine turned over but no start. I don't hear the fuel pump when the ignition is turned on...And there was no spark to the plugs.... This can be a simple thing like a coil and pump relay... or a computer failure...

    and the XJ just keeps running

    My daughter has a 97 XJ that has been through a woman driver hell and just keeps going. General poor maintenance of course should have killed it 100,000 miles ago. It's been nicely overheated more than once with no noticeable damage to the engine. Several unscheduled off road tips..A wheel...

    My 99 is lifted about 2 inches, 265-R 15 tires . The rear is one inch higher than the front.The front end joints are all in good shape.The toe in is 1/8 inch. It steers ok but wanders ever so slightly ,more so than before the bigger tires and lift. It might need a degree or so more castor...

    The knock that ain't

    My 99 always had a knocking sound at idle when fully warmed up. I was told it was pistons, a rod and or excessive rod end play. I pretty much ignored the sound for three years. Then I hear a guy talking about the noisy evaporative emissions valve on the firewall. So I yank the wire...

    O2 sensor hanking by wire,no CEL

    My 97 had a noisy exhaust for several months. Then it got real noisy a few weeks ago. The convertor was rotted out at the rear so the O2 sensor was loose and swinging by the wires. No Check engine light, performance and fuel mileage was normal. I put on a different convertor and used the same O2...

    CEl on ,code PO138

    99 XJ 4.0 5 speed. Runs very well. Check engine light just came on. My cheap scanner says P0138 high voltage bank 1 sensor 2 I assume this means the O2 sensor screwed into the cat convertor is faulty? Better to ask experienced mechanics before replacing parts...

Got the left side, but the right side bushing inner sleeve was seized on the bolt.You know, turn the bolt and the hanger starts to spread. Probably others have done this , I used a angle grinder with cut off disc...
