FYI--a question was recently asked, "Is it against the rules to make a new account?"--Yes, it is. You can request a name change on your account, but multiple accounts for an individual are not allowed.

Shave its backside, drive it in reverse? There is ugly, and then there is UGLY.

The coolant temp sensor may be out of spec and that could cause the PCM issues with hot starts.

The axle, other than having the low pinion which can drag on rocks, really isn't a problem--just a D30 of a different "color". You could swap the front axle out if you want, depending on how hard and what type of wheeling you do. If memory serves, the 00-01 can be a little fussy with...

The path out of Renix H*ll is paved with diagnostic stones.

RENIX--Renault/Bendix XJs are 1987-1990. Cherokee XJ years of production--1984 to 2001. Bast*rd year--1996. Can a well-cared for XJ last more than 300k miles? YES. Are there many (any) "well-cared for" XJs out there? NO. The unibody is the CRITICAL part of the XJ--make sure it isn't...

I have enjoyed this series from the beginning, however I felt they spent too much time at the farm playing the "soap opera" angle. Now, it just might be me, but so far this season has been a little disappointing, and I feel we are essentially "back on the farm".

After removing most of my left lung the Dr. made me stay in the hospital for 72 hours!

Well, when looking at something like that "jeep", the old adage comes to mind--"Shave its ARSE and drive it backwards..."

What is the belt's tension setting, according to your handy-dandy Krikit II tension gauge?

And what reading did you get off the crank sensor immediately after it died?

You may have a wire behind the dash keeping the switch from fully seating.

Shouldn't be a problem--same ignition switch used up to 1994. You need to know that the tilt and non-tilt columns use some different parts.

Knowledge I got, old too, and with ailments it can put limits on what you can do.

Have a Junior College or automotive high school near you? Many will do jobs for a small fee if they are currently studying a particular subject area.

As all of the others have already said, when the no run/start condition presents YOU must identify the MISSING ELEMENT. You say you have spark, then check with a NOID light and see if you are getting an injection pulse. If you are getting the injections pulse, then check your fuel pressure and...

Glad you got your part. However, to get the best response to your questions please include the basics--year, engine, etc.

OK. Kind of jumping in here. Make sure the battery is fully charged, then have it load tested per Optima recommendations. If it passes, then hook it back up and use a voltmeter to measure static, engine off, voltage between the posts--looking for about 12.5 volts. Next, start the engine and...

Dexron transmission fluid--PINK. Golden/brownish are not options. I would change the fluid, do a poor man's flush BEFORE pulling the transmission. Remember--the fluid provides the energy transfer from the engine to the transmission. Bad fluid, poor energy transfer.
