I jumped the resistor,but it didn't do anything. I guess I could try it again. I tried checking the voltage yesterday,and got a really funky reading. I think I'm on the right track for a change. The fuel rail isn't staying full. So it has to be a fuel issue of some kind. After a new started...

Yes Kas.I have it started out at 3/4 now its at 1/2 a tank.If I play with the key it will put fuel at the rail,but that doesn't last a couple of seconds.I start the jeep it will run on whats in the rail then falls on its face. Yea Pete that was my next trick to pull the pump out.Check the pickup...

I think I did this all ready,but I'm going out to check the fuel pump voltage.Just to see what its reading

I'm down to my wits end here.I put plugs,rotor,and a new cap nothing.I had no fuel in the fuel rail,so I replaced the fuel preasure regulator,nothing.Next I'm guessing is the fuel pump.I don't have see or smell any gas leaks.I can here the fuel pump pumping hit the gas,and it falls flat on its...

I replaced the TPS,and nothing.I keep thinking its a fuel problrm.I think I better go old school.I'm doing the plugs cap,and rotor in the Am.Hope this works.I'm pulling my hair out here.

I sprayed around the injectors,and the rpms never went up.So i'm guessing thats a good thing.I'm going to install a new TPS today,and try unpluging the O2 senser if that dosn't work.I tryed getting a fuel pump resistor yesterday,but they didn't have a listing for it.Imagine that,so they...

I've all ready replaced the fuel filter,and cleaned my air cleaner.I did the unplug the cps for 5 minutes and plug it back in a couple of times.to be sure it had a good conection.I even took the battery cable off for 24 hours to reset everything.NO difference.While I was under the hood I...

Thanks fulltimer.I looked into that a year ago,but never replaced it.I was also thinking it could be the TPS after reading some other posts.I know the o2 sensor is 80 bucks and a day or 2 wait.

88 Xj,4.0,auto I was making a left turn on my way home from work.When my jeep started running really rough,and missing.It acts like it isn't getting enough fuel,or not fireing on all 6 cylinders.I replaced the fuel filter yesterday no help there,and cleaned my reuseable airfilter.It will...

You hit the nail on the head Joe.Its an 88 renix,and its exactly were you said it was.I'm thinking I need to clean the grounds up some more.Thanks Guys

I have to ask this,because it just dosn't sound right.When I had my dash apart I noticed that there was no ground at the CPU case.Its bolted to a steel plate,but the plate is plastic riveted to the dash.The steel isn't attached to any of the actual body.Should it be????

I hear that,but racing,and watching is the best part of a build like this.Hell yea !!!!!

I just noticed were your from Larry.I'm originaly from Hac.Hgts,and La Puente.I used to sell stuff at the foothill swapmeet back in the day.A sh-t ton of VW parts,and off road goodies.PPI,and Cals had some great people working for them back then.They were also a very tight nit group fun as hell...

I don't get it Joe.The weather was even colder today,and she started right up the first try.Maybe the new ground took hold. LOL Thanks again Joe + everyone for all the help.

Man I just found this post.I have to say 20 years ago I was fabricating a ton of VW based cars for Score,Micky Tompsons,and NDRA cars.This is some of the best home Fab work I have ever seen.You seem to know exactly were to add the beef in all the right places.My hats off to you man on the great...

Ok 40 mins later,colder,and guess what it started again.Maybe I fixed it?????

Oh yea when this thing has spark it has spark lol.No need for a hotter coil even if they did make one.Finger is still stiff,and switching lol.I was going to try the hair dryer trick on the coil,but didn't need it.I keep thinking I have a short somewere in the system,but no idea wear.

Ok Joe get this one LOL.I went out pulled the #4 plug wire put a phillips in it held it about an 1/4 inch away from a ground.Jumped it across the polls on the starter relay,with the key on.Its about 8 degrees colder than the first attempt.It started right up while i was cranking it over.So now I...

I haven't really had time to check that yet Joe.Its tipical OK now its around 20 degrees out side.I'm pretty sure its getting gas I can smell it at both ends.

Ok joe it didn't start so is there a way to check the MAT sensor.I have an idea on the CTS all ready.
