I'm positive my mileage isn't backwards. 8 when driving mostly city streets, about 12 (varies from 10-13) when driving mostly highway. I usually use a quarter of tank by about 60 miles (highway) and am down to a quarter of a tank at about 200 miles. When I've used the A/C, and gotten better...

Found the hose, thanks. Would have never found it, if I hadn't been specifically looking for something like it. It was hidden from view in every possibly way. Found it by feeling around -- when my hand got soaked I found it... :) Am I sure what isn't backwards? Now if I can just figure...

Okay, I've got a '91 XJ, 4.0, auto w/ A/C obviously. :) Problem #1 is the A/C condensates inside the Jeep with very little condensation outside. It drips out from under the dash and under the vents for the back seats. It is bad enough that it will puddle up significantly on the passenger...

Okay, so I was a little premature on the fact that its fixed. It started and sounded good, then... it got rough but kept running. If I give it gas it sounds good and smooth, if I let it idle it will gradually slow until it dies. If I put it in gear it will run okay, until I give it any gas to...

Its fixed. :yelclap: Matthew Currie, it was the distributor. One tooth off (back) just like you mentioned. I checked before I reset the distributor and it was right on the money according to Haynes. :smsoap: Old_Man, I checked the valve, seemed a little weak (?) maybe, but it squirted...

I'll pull the distributor again and check it. The short block wasn't rebuilt (low miles and clean as can be), but the head was. I installed a new cam (Crane) with a new timing chain set (Elgin). Unless there was an issue with the design of the cam and/or timing chain set, it should be...

Okay, I've been through the threads and have found a lot ideas, but nothing that covers my problem, so if you have any suggestions I could definitely use them. I need my jeep back.... Okay, here's the deal: '91 XJ '00 4.0 block, intake, power steering '91 everything else It is very difficult...

Thanks for the heads up... I have the chance to get the complete '99 engine, so I might do that just to be on the safe side. Were there any other accessories that were improved over the '91? I thought I had heard that the water pump and alternator were improved....but I could have been...

Block... I'm thinking of using a '99 block and intake manifold, and pretty much everything else out of my '91 (head, accessories, etc)...

Can I swap the block from a '99 XJ into a '91???

I checked this, doesn't seem to be any (abnormal?) wear, no movement either. Thanks for the input. No other ideas?

I just bought a '91 Limited and everything checked out when I test drove it. I drove it for about 100 miles then changed the oil and did some other minor repairs. Now after about 1500 miles it has started knocking. The problem is, it is a weird knock. I have heard knocking caused by spun rod...
