First off: 87 4.0L I6, AX-15, 2dr Something is draining my battery to the point where I get a jump and can only keep it running for about a minute before it dies. Is this a short? Where should I start looking for problems?

I'm going to look at an xj today and its got a few things wrong with it. So to ensure that there aren't additional things wrong I thought I'd ask the resident experts what to look for to make sure I'm not being screwed over. Heres the guys description off craiglist: i have a 96 jeep cherokee...

Radiator, Fan, Front Grill, Bumper, and Cross Linkage for Steering. Can I swap these from a 87 2dr 4.0, PS, 5spd, 4x4 to a 96 4dr 4.0, PS, AW4, 4x4? TIA, Kev

Was changing out my plugs yesterday and forgot to jot down the order for each tube. Its an 87 renix. If someone has a spark plug/distributor diagram that I can get the order from, i'd be much obliged. BTW, sorry if this has been covered, I searched and got nothing. TIA, Kev

87 4.0 AX-15 Renix It will crank, turn over but not fire. It seems when the battery is at full charge it starts up fine, although I'm not convinced the battery is the problem. I've changed the CPS, so thats not it. I changed the spark plugs and checked for spark, and that was good, so I...

On tonight at 10 PM EST on FX. It looks like its going to be an amazing ending, I'm just hoping they don't pull a Sopranos.

who ya got? I'm gonna be a Noles homer and say FSU pulls off the upset. They do have a legit shot, if they can play solid defense and get some turnovers like they did against Maryland. That being said, Florida is kicking everyone's ass right now and they've never won big at the Doak.

After my heep being down for a while, I'm starting to think the reason it doesn't start is one of three things: 1. Battery 2. Alternator 3. Short (somewhere) It seems that when I get it jumped, it will run just fine. Today I got a friend to jump me, let my battery charge for about 2 min...

I can't, for the life of me, figure out whats wrong with my 87. I've changed everything that I thought would cause my no-start issue, but my symptoms remain. I'm curious if theres anyone in the Jacksonville area that wouldn't mind coming over to help me diagnose the problem over a few beers...

who else watches? Best show on TV.

Lets face it, McCain doesn't have a chance without PA. :hang:

I don't know what to try next. My engine is cranking, turning over, but not firing. It will randomly fire at times, but then won't start again for weeks. I suspected the CPS so I changed that out, but I'm still getting the same symptoms. Before I changed the CPS, I couldn't smell gas in the...

Just changed out my CPS, which was a pain in my ass by the way, and went to crank it and got nothing. Before I changed it, it tried to crank and turn over, but just didn't fire up. Is there something i have to do with the ECU to reset the CPS or something? What am I missing?

Early voting all over the country is leading to chaos. Voting computer malfunctions, delays, unorganization, and they just showed a guy on CNN that tried to vote for Obama 3 times. Just let me know when its over...

A black man/woman with a McCain shirt/bumper sticker/pin/hat?

Apparently a voter registration company (ACORN) has been trying to submit thousands upon thousands of fraudulent voter forms. So far, fake registration forms have been found in Nevada and Indiana. Guess which candidate has recently given money to ACORN, Barack Obama. Does he have any friends...

I'm trying to swap out the CPS on my 87 xj (4.0 AX-15) and can barely get my fingers on the bolts, let alone, a socket wrench. How the hell do you get this thing off? Methods, Tools, and Prayers are appreciated. hasta

I'm pretty much set on getting some 31x10.5 BFG's for my heep, but I can't decide between the AT and the MT. Cost doesn't really make a difference, they are only a $30 difference anyways. This is my DD and I offroad in it maybe a few times a week. How bad is the road noise with MT's?

So I brought my 87 renix into the local dealership the other day after i couldn't figure out whats wrong with it and they told me what I pretty much already knew. They said it was one of 3 things: 1. Crankshaft Position Sensor 2. Throttle Position Sensor 3. Ignition Coil Heres my question...

my recently acquired xj is lookin kinda crappy. Its got the weird off-white tan color but the paint is oxidized to hell. I wanna sand it down and get it painted white but it would be cheaper to just get some rattle can white, sand it down, and spray paint it myself, apply some clear coat, and...
