Perfect. Thanks again, I will be foamin' this weekend!

Is it better one way or another, pouring through the BBVL or disconnecting the air hose and pouring into TB? Thanks a ton for the Booster tutorial. Really appreciate that.

I have a 99 XJ with around 148K that makes the nastiest sound on start-up and shortly thereafter. Sounds like a diesel with all the knocking and tapping. I've seen where this could be a Flex Plate or carbon build up and to use Seafoam. I have read a ton of seafoam posts and will try that...

Can anyone help? Just point me in the right direction. Heat and A/C work fine and air blows from correct vents (Although sometimes I have to switch from floor to defrost and back again to get air flowing from floor and not the window.) The problem, if it is one, is when I turn the ignition...

I am beginning to hear a licking noise that lasts for several seconds after shutting the rig off. The sound is coming from behind the center dash and I believe it has something to do with turning the knob from floor heat to defrost and back to floor again. The turning knob isn't as smooth as it...

Well I can hear the motor/actuator trying to open the door, but the lock stays locked. All other doors work fine. I figure it's the actuator which I also assume is something like the power window regulator. I've replaced that too. Anyway does that sound like it could be the problem? Does...

Performed the search but haven't quite seen what I'm looking for. My power locks all work with the exception of the driver side rear door. When using the key fob, instead of the usual quick click of the unlocking, the sound is prolonged and the door remains locked. New lock motor/actuator...

Sounds that way. Thanks for the info, I will begin plotting everything out today.

Well, I haven't seen anymore of the spots on the ground since putting down a couple of pieces of cardboard. I left it under there only for a couple of hours. I have them back under there and will check in morning to see if time makes a difference. I did see that the fluid under the hood is...

I will try that tomorrow and post back. Thanks for the help.

It's been going on for a couple of weeks at least. That's when I started noticing the drainage on the ground. The stuff on the ground doesn't really look or smell like oil. It's more clear than anything, though it's hard to tell really. But the spots line up right under that junction, and...

After much searching, I can figure it's probably the rear brake junction box that sits on the axle. BTW, everything is stock, no mods. I found a post with this advice, is this the correct way to fix this? Re: Rear axle oil leak through the breather line I have had a couple of stock XJ's do...

I have a leak under the rear axle. The fill plug in the rear diff looked to be leaking a bit before I wiped it away, but the "puddle" on the ground doesn't line up correctly. It looks like the splitter box for the brakes may be the culprit. There's a black, almost chalky-gooey type substance...

Thanks all. All of the info is great.

I have a rear diff. leaking and needs a new gasket. Are there any write-ups on how this is done? I've seen the posts regarding gasket v. RTV, but nothing on how the actual process is done. I have some mechanical knowledge and have a haynes guide, etc. I've done quite a bit on her myself...
