About a quarter tank of gas + stabil, I'm guessing . I might try your suggestion.
A lot of the suggestions pnline (apart from dropping the tank) for draining the gas are sketchy :)
1. Pic of the jeep when I picked it up. I now realize it's actually been 2 years (time flies I guess)
2. I've just realized that the gas is about 2 years old too. The last time I tried starting it up (about a year ago, I could hardly get the motor to stay running without revving the cr@p out...
Hi
I think I'm going to start with the OEM mounts (they're only about $12-$15 each) while I sort the rest of this vehicle out. Once (hopefully) I have it running right, .. the fun begins. Too many worn out parts right now.
Is something like this okay (as long as it hopefully uses rubber bushings to keep NVH down) - https://www.1aauto.com/jeep-engine-and-transmission-mount-kit-3-piece-set/i/1aeek00953/1379676/1999
The good stuff would be about $150 - $200 for a set.
probably smelt more like exhaust fumes (cracked exhaust manifold)
What's a decent set of mounts (motor + tranny) to buy?
I'm considering putting a cheapo set in there till I have everything sorted out. If this sounds a bad approach please let me know.
Thank you all.
Based on your feedback, I think I'm going to tackle (in order)
the battery (old one died on me shortly after I got the vehicle home
the valve cover gasket (to stop the incessant leak whenever I crank the engine)
exhaust manifold
motor mounts
take a look at what's going on with...
Hello All,
About a year ago, I managed to snag a used 1999 4x4 XJ with about 260K miles (and a rebuilt title by virtue of some slight fender damage) on it with the intent of restoring / lightly modding it and spending time wrenching on it with the kid.
There are a bunch of things wrong with it...
