The XJ shut off mid-drive and has had an excessive low idle after the engine has warmed up. When turned on cold it idles at 750~, but right around 160 on the CTS it starts to lower gradually until it's idling at that bottom bar (500?). I'm not sure if this is indicative of an IAC problem or...

I have a bunch of small fuses in the engine bay that don't have any voltage. There are only two that do and they read 9.6~ volts with the key on, and 10.6 with the engine running. I don't think this is normal. Is anyone familiar with a possibility as to why this is? I was going to use a...

2000 XJ, AW4 I just finished up some wiring on the passenger side of the XJ earlier in the garage. When I turned it on I could hear a faint uneven sound that sounded like it could be coming from the engine. From inside the cabin I could hear it but outside I couldn't. While I was near the...

I am in the middle of breaking in the cam and the idle was high (after it's on for a very short amount of time it revs to beyond 3k - then I shut it off). WHen I turn it on I touch the pedal to bring it up to 2k (it cranks up and hangs around a low idle and feels a tad shaky before I bring...

2000 Automatic, 4.6 Stroker with Sprintex Supercharger (has sat out back for over a year, FYI) I have just rebuilt and engine and I am currently having a loss of power. It sounded okay when it first started up, but the longer it's been on the more it seems to be degrading. When I accelerate...

I have a 2000 XJ with the auto. How do I keep the crank and cam sprockets in place to torque the cam timing gear to spec? I have an auto and even in 1st gear the crank just spins freely. When you're putting those sprockets on you don't have a harmonic balancer to use to lock it down to the...

I'm reinstalling the OEM engine after a stroker failure (4th one to date and this time it might have been my fault for the first time). I haven't put one in for several years and when I did it the last time I had someone helping me, but I'm doing it alone now. Do I mate the engine to the...

So... I was just wondering.... I have a LockRite for a D35 laying around.... can that be stabbed into a D30? Has anyone tried this. ? What are the differences. ? Wayne P.~

I just recently got my rig running and it's 4WD capable for the first time in its 146K miles of existence. Does anyone know any good wheeling spots along the east/mid-east of NC? I haven't been one single time and only know of one spot in the immediate area that has been closed down. I'm in...

Has anyone here used stock WJ shocks with 4.5" of lift? I got them for free and was curious how they would ride. Mine is still out of commission so I haven't had a chance to use them. WIth them fully stretched out I had to get a large nut to close the space between it and the mount up in the...

I have found the music video of our Cherokees. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCbUZqN8JZ0

So this is what happened after the first time I got the engine from Titan. We broke the cam in improperly and this was the damage sustained: Well, after getting a 3 angle valve job all around and having the guides and seats all replaced due to a worn valve guide in the cylinder #3 exhaust...

I've heard tell of superchargers that are electric and actually a real (not full blown) supercharger. Has anyone tried, or heard tell of trying, one of these? http://www.myhotcherokee.com/RAM/Superchargers/1-PSI-Super-Charger-System/18149/ For 60 amps it seems lacking considering it says...

Does anyone know this XJ ?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7YCT34umQ0&NR=1

I was just looking a Clifford Performance (6=8) and was wondering if anyone has any experience with them or their claims? 18-22% Avg gain on a stock 4.0 with their headers? It also doesn't state if they're using the stock exhaust or a full dual etc etc. IM is water/coolant heated to...

I think that's what they're called. The things that go on the bottom of the doors? I want to replace my 98 XJ Limited with the 91-96 Sport door molds... the ones with the red-stripe. Anyone know where those can be obtained besides a junkyard? I just checked quadratec and they skip over...

I was about to start researching JY SC's and their dimensions so I can have stuff fabricated to have one adapted to the stock IM. I was wondering if there is anyone else doing the same and what they have found so far? I think we could all contribute to an end result of an easier SC solution...

I was wondering if anyone listens to bands from other countries? I'm not too fond of what USA produces anymore. I think most music died after the 80's personally. Here's a list of progressive and symphonic metal bands I listen to: Balance of Power, UK, progressive rock (Sounds like what the...

If you go here http://www.ajeepthing.com/stroker-motor.html I built the "4.6 Low-Buck Stroker" with Option 1, meaning I should be at about a 9.6 CR. So according to this phrase (it's on that page): *For each 0.010" milled from the block deck (or taken from head gasket thickness) to reduce...

I'm looking to by an AX15 with the PCM for a 98 compatible XJ. I have the AW4. Also willing to arrange for a swap meet. Wayne P.~
