Aftermarket RPM gauge? Is that around a coil wire you say? Trace it out and find the other side. Hard to see the location from an up close picture.

Brown Dog all the way. Every Jeep- every time. No harsh vibrations- just follow the instructions. I hit a huge pothole one day and sheared a motor mount off resulting in a motor that rolled over in the engine bay. since then I prevent the problem and swap them out asap. All 5 jeeps of...

I cant believe I missed that the first time... P1899 code (park/neutral switch stuck) replace the neutral safety switch before you proceed.

Hold on! you said P1899 code- that is a (park/neutral switch stuck) code. If that's intermittent it will prevent you from re-firing your engine because it thinks it is in drive. I bet you that once you put your jeep into park after you pull in the drive way it sticks the switch in drive and...

It will slowly bleed back the pressure to the tank over 30 min. Also If your not hard up for cash- I would replace both for good measure. You can also switch around the fuel pump relay with another to rule that out as a problem. I have seem them get hot and then open the circuit.

Its okay to be new to all this. We were all new at some point. I remember my first xj 15 years ago- I knew nothing about them at that point. You can pull the coil wire and ground it to check for spark, but it would be better to pull a plug wire from the first cylinder, put a spare plug in...

Thats exactly what I did. I had detroit tru-trac front and rear for about 2 years. Got a good deal on a detroit locker for the rear and love the combo. I just WORKS

You have to verify if you DO or DO NOT have spark when the symptoms occur. And yes, it can be either of those. I would replace the CPS first because likely it has not been done before- they seem to go between 65k-100k miles. Then look into ignition coil. Btw: Have you done a tune up yet...

Hi blondejoncherokee, I met you in sac when I bought that Detroit Tru-Trac from you many moons ago. You guys should plan a trip up this way and I'll show you around.

That was my stomping ground growing up. I go everywhere! I live in redding now- grew up in weaverville, douglas city and lewiston area! There are trails north of redding for the rocky stuff (also have a OVH park here) east is softer, muddy dirt trails, and west is rocky high mountain trails...

Do you have spark? Maybe your coil is "heat soaked"... So you KNOW the pump is making pressure. Fuel, ignition source (spark) and oxygen. You just ruled out two of them.

I notice the OP decided to make a first post thread and then bail out. -What a child...

LOL EXACTLY! :cheers: People are dumb to be obsessed over stupid crap like this, and then what? Do they think its going to change anything once they make it known their hurt feelings. How about this: get out of your moms basement, stop living on "World of Warcraft" and get outside where the...

:thumbup: This...

My thoughts exactly... Been there- done that- happy when I sold it...

It is a good place to start. Temp it fine. Im thinking you have an electrical issue. We can drive and crawl these things everywhere, at any speed, and never experience heat soak. Have you checked if your fuel pump is priming after she dies? Only happened twice before tells me the fuel pump...

Welcome to the forum. Is this really your first post since you joined in February? What your describing does not really sound like heat soak. What operating temperature is your jeep at when she dies? Does it idle down and then die? Are you getting fuel to the rail after it dies with the key...

Very nice work! This is inspiring for sure! would love to see it in person- do you ever head north and wheel near Redding? I can show you some sick trails up here =) I totally dig the headliner!

Did someone leave a shop rag in the motor when they "rebuilt" it? Working at Chrysler/Jeep/Dodge for 11 years and I have seen this twice... Just a thought.

I run a Detroit locker in my rear d44, and a Detroit Tru-Trac up front in the d30. 4:88 gears, hydro assist, 35's and ax-15. It has very nice daily driver manners. Front acts open till in 4-low. Rear does not lock around town at all. I can make it lock if I stab the gas in the corner. I...
