I use pledge furniture polish (works great and cheap).

When I bought my 92 4.0 it had 183K on it, I switched to mobil 1 and have not had any problems. It now has 202K and runs like a new one. Just don't use (yellow death) Pens oil which contains candle wax or Frahm filters (absolute junk). The choice is up to you.

Ireplaced the thermal fuse a couple years ago, very easy. I bought it at Radio Shack, cost about $2.

Since they switched to all the crappy additives the mileage dropped 4 mpg. I will be buying gas in the next county for the rest of winter (they don't have to put the junk in the gas).

FSM for sure, only way to go.

I've used every antenna thats made and a firestick is by far the worst ever. I have been using cb's for 35 years, all the firesticks I ever used were non adjustable. I haven't been around them for the last 5 years though, maybe they make an adjustable one now. I could talk and hear twice as...

They started to change over to metric in the late 70's, but rather than switch completely they made half the fasteners metric and half standard. Must have been inspired by the tool manufactures cause now you have to have rwo complete sets of tools.

Is there anyway to tell by the vin # or otherwise what month it was produced? TIA

After watching politicians for the last 50 years I have came to the conclusion that "we have the best politicians money can buy". I have listened to them tell about all the wonderful things they are going to do (before being elected) and doing absolutely nothing after being elected except work...

Thank you for the info on replacing the remote, I figured it was a lost cause and would never be able to use again.

I run it til the next oil change, I don't gaurantee any miracles but it works for me.

290K on the original engine.

I've been running MMO in the crankcase and in the gas tank for the last 40 years, and in every kind of vehicle and have never had a problem. I run a quart in the crankcase every 3rd oil changes. Half a quart in the gas tank every 6 months. Do what you want, it works good for me.

My 92 XJ, the heater will run you out of the car it gets so hot. I always run it on the slowest speed. I replaced the heater core and blower motor right after I bought it about 2 years ago. Its the first car I've owned that the heater starts warming up within a couple blocks of driving (gotta...

I used duplicolor bed liner black rattle can on mine, and the bumpers and the rubber thing under the radiator. Mine was silver before that had turned to silver primmer (looked like crap before) made a world of difference in the looks. 92XJ.
