can you check it is spark going off or fuel pump going off when it dies? There is a safety feature for when oil pressure dies or something alike (no RPM readout?) to shut the fuel pump off in case of an accident (IIRC), but more info would be necessary to pinpoint.

Almost all of the latest 8.25 have 9" brakes. I haven't seen a 10" in a while. On the part list I have, only "Police Package" shows 10" rear brakes

One IMPORTANT thing, cleck the bearing clearances :lecture:!!. The 4.0 is assembled with a choice of bearings. There are STD and +.001" I would check the clearances with plastigage before replacing them. I did it on my 99 and 4 of the mains had a +.001, 5 of the rods have a +.001. They come...

I have the same problem. Rumbles/vibes at 25 to 35 and then smooth, starts again at 60-ish, Replaced the DS with a brand new balanced CV, even worse, rotated the DS 180 on the rear yoke, same thing. Pulled the rear wheel axles, good condition. Tranny and TC, new. Front DS not there...

I have the drawings. E-mail me, [email protected]. I can't post attachments..... Rafa

how old is your water pump? You may have rusted out the impeller. The lack of flow will keep the coolant in the radiator cool, and the engine will keep all the heat, perfect recipe for a blown head gasket...

I just finished this on my 99 (actually testing tonight!!!). Here is what I found::paper: Transmission is a drop in, everything bolts right on. Tranny mount and crossmember are the same, no changes. Do not use the mount adapter (the black tray thingy that bolts on the 2WD tail housing) from...

I have the same problem in my 99, but on the pass side. The rain water dribbles from the door panel (plastic), it looks like the water runs trhough the window seal, into the insides of the door and then somehow channels right under the door pull. I can see the water marks from there. I read...

I installed mine in the center console (2 1/16" Autometer), right in front of the transfer case lever on the slightly inclined part. The sensor is going on the pump to cooler line with a custom aluminium fitting. Also, i'll be adding a sensor on the engine oil cooler line to switch the gauge...

To add to ratman572's comment, he is right. The use of an higher pressure oil pump will not help on a worn engine, the bearing clearances will just bleed the pressure down to what it is now; Volume will compensate for the bleeding through the bearings. I did install a higher volume, standard...

years ago I had a J10 with horrible DW, I was working in a big rig shop and I has a couple of leftover shocks from a Mack truck job that were good, I installed them from the pumpin area to the steering bar, one in each direction (antiparalell). Problem solved :yelclap: , never again until I took...

I installed a Melling high volume pump, but you will need to (well, I did on my 99 4.0) to make a small dent on the oil pan to make room for it. It was hitting the pan and I don't want to make a hole in the pan from vibration. The dent was cutting a bit on the internal baffle and hammering a...

I did the seal on my 99 a few days ago, it was stuck and the only way to budge was with a small flat jewlers (about 0.150" wide) screwdriver between the seal and the block, pry the screwdriver away from the crank to relieve pressure from the metal inside the seal. Of course, having some slack on...

Just pull the front driveshaft and the 2 shafts from your front axle diff to the wheel, separate the u-joints (and the 2 shafts) and reinstall the short one to the wheel bearing on both sides (that is what holds the wheel bearing together!). My front differential was grinding some bearings...

There is something that could be done to adapt the cruise control to a paddle shift, but the way the current (at least 98-99) cruise control works is not a open-close switch, it has a two-wire (voltage sensitive) interface through the clockspring (not shared with the airbag wires). The shifter...

The pump is enclosed in a housing that has a one-way valve inthe bottom. This valve (little red rubber disc in the bottom of the housing) allows the fuel to be "stored" into the housing so the pump will always have a constant supply of fuel, so starving will not happen unless you park with 1gal...

You have a fuel pump problem. Drop the tank and replace it, it may have dirty fuel filters in the tank, you may be able to get away with just new filters (it has 2, one sock and a little one inside the assembly). I had the same in my 99 XJ, replaced the pump and filters and the problem stopped...
