kool. ill check for spark. the old screw driver stuck in a plug wire arcing off the valve cover should work rigt?

yeah, the jeep is a 1988. funny thing is man, i can go out at run it at 3000 RPMs until im blue in the face and it seems ok for a while. then i kill it, and bam.. nothing when i try to start it again. i switched out all the relays, still ahve the same problem.. next guess is a sensor or FP. how...

ok, so ive been putting off looking at this mainly cause its cold, and its pissing me off. i had a warm day today so i went out and had a look. what happened was i was driving an 80 mile drive and and about mile 70, the jeep died, rolled off the highway and then wouldnt start. after about 30...

ok, i still cant find the ballast resistor. i dont think i have one. for anyone that missed it, i have a 2.5l not a 4l. it is 88 renix, but i dont think the 2.5 has a BR. if anyone can confirm this or tell me the location of the 2.5l ballast resistor, please feel free. on the DRIVER SIDE, i...

just to the right of the PS res.? i wonder... my PS fluid was overfilled, and gushed out through the lid... is there a possability that it got on the BR and messed it up?

i cant find the ballast resistor. should i have to remove the air filter box to get to it? i have a fluid bottle on the inner fender and the airbox is really all i can see.

right on. ill do that tomorrow. thanks!

where did you get the new box from? got a pick of what it looks like? im just confused as to what box youre talkign about? also, does anyone know what ohm ballast resistor to get? there 3 available with different ohm ratings.

great. thanks. good luck too man.

Re: MY JEEP ALMOST KILLED ME! right on. yeah last night i rotaed them all. but the jeep would only run for a minute then die, then a little later it would run again. how many ohms is the ballast resistor? according to that diagram, it looks liek a great start because it directly goes to the...

Re: MY JEEP ALMOST KILLED ME! yeah, for me it seems liek a ghost in the wiring or something. ill def. check that ballast resistor. and im going to just go ahead and replace the FP relay if i can find it. higherelevation!, 3 FP's in two weeks!!? falty pumps or is youre jeep burning them up?? i...

ok, heres what happened... i was driving home from springfield to cincinnati (about 90 miles) and after just having fixed one problem another comes up. its raining pretty hard and yadda yadda... im about 5 minutes from hom and my jeep dies on the highway... engine just stop getting fuel, tach...

wow. if that dude did a write up.. id be on it.

good news. i think it was just a bad o2 sensor. ill post monday after i put a couple hundred miles on it this weekend! thanks for all the help everyone!

only 150k. about 50k of them are tow bar miles.
