I've got an inconsistent drip coming from the bottom corner of my radiator, and I'm wondering if it could be anything other than a crack/leak in the radiator itself. 00' XJ, 6cyl, 4.0, 4X4 I don't think it's the petcock, and I'm tempted to tighten the bolt on the underside of the radiator (a...

Solved! (anyone know how I can edit the title of this thread to reflect such?) Turns out I'd gotten some moister on one of the spark plugs when I pulled the heatercore line to replace the coil pack. That's what was causing me to have unburnt fuel in the mixture. Basically just burned it off by...

Yeah, I ended up getting hightailin' it outta there when the winds shifted yesterday afternoon. From what I've been hearing, just within time's nick. Safety of life was always paramount, but it's still a bummer to have been so close to getting it mobile, only to have to leave it behind -...

Still have yet to sleep since I found that reader, but did manage to get the codes and record the data. P0122 and P0505. I'll be looking into those after I get some sleep. Any advice that might help me get JeeP moving and out of the danger zone would be beyond super.

It's coming out the tail. I'm about to see about checking the codes... now that I have my RV loaded and ready to go, and JeeP's parked out in the middle of the open dirt lot on the property... Sand Fire, Santa Clarita, CA.... where I'm at

I found a code reader lying around about a minute before finding out there was a multiple-thousands acre fire just on the other side of the hill (road was blocked off between me and the nearest gas station), so JeeP work had took a back seat for the day. Looks now like we're in the clear (for...

Think the head's good. Oil's totally clean, and I'd have noticed something that sooner, right? and that should have read *loud* whistle :) But that whistle seemed to have gone away

I've got a 2000 Cherokee Sport (XJ, I'm told), 4.0L inline 6 4x4. Had my valve cover off the other day (CCV breather complications) and when I closed everything back up and turned the key, everything seemed groovy. Drove 8 miles into down (windy canyon road, 35-55 mph), stopped to grab something...
