    Tire recomendations for stock Daily Driver?

    I have a no-lift, daily driver 1990XJ that requires new rubber on stock 15" rims (235/70R/LR15). My present set is Good-Years Fortera which is no longer made. These are the best tires I have had on this XJ for what I do, which is strictly city/highway commute. Dry/wet surface handling are high...

    Just in ... I'm hearing a click about every 30 seconds coming from the passenger side around the cowl. Battery voltage drops by about .3v and with the next click the voltage returns. Next click and voltage drops again. Doing this repeatedly. Caught it with my battery around 10v. Any longer and...

    RENIX heater core flush ... assistance required.

    I have a 1990 XJ RENIX that I am starting the process to flush the heater core. It has never been done on this vehicle and I have never done the job before myself. Initial steps to get the hoses off from the heater core inlet and outlets is choosing to be difficult (why not, it's almost 30...

    RENIX I4 results ...

    Thats what I ran all summer with 4 cylinders on my DD 1990 XJ, 4.0l, I6 RENIX. 25% more mileage per tank full. Didn't notice a difference except at the pump. I also didn't do it on purpose. Getting ready for winter here so must change over to winter weight 5w-30. I then noticed my two back...

    MIDAS blew up my Jeep ...

    ... and I am pissed!! I have a 1990 RENIX that I have been keeping very good care of for the last 20 years. I had been noticing lately an exhaust leak at the muffler and my tailpipe was starting to fall apart. I had some time and money and thought one afternoon to drop it off at a closely...

    I've recently changed my O2 sensor and installed 4 port injectors in my 1990 XJ DD. I installed these Bosch 2 spark plugs in 2004 and haven't touched them since. The gap is .025. Comments welcome on their look after a couple of weeks with the new components. 12 MP camera has difficulty focusing...

    O2 sensor break-in required?

    Is there such a thing? I just replaced mine in a 1990 XJ with 130k. I was not having any problems with it prior. With the new unit in I see my O2 voltage jumping around and the exhaust status quickly changing from rich to lean when monitored on a MT2500. Without looking at the scanner, one would...

    Grease up ball-stud end?

    I got under the vehicle to grease up the steering linkage and spotted this on the front left wheel. 1990 XJ. Not sure if I have the terminology down correctly, but the ball-stud end looks like it could use some grease but I don't see a fitting. Can I simply install a fitting up top? The grease...

    Hood won't close ...

    1990 XJ I might get lucky sometimes and if I do, the latches pop if I hit a bump. I checked both latches on the hood and they both lock when I use a screw-driver to lock. Lubed them both up. The latches both release. All looks well with the hood part of the equation. The hood is flush with the...

    Fuel rail quick connect o-ring damaged upon rail re-installation ...

    After a successful day of upgrading to new injectors in my 1990 Jeep XJ, I had one final hook-up and I was done. As per Murphy's Law, I ran into a problem. I was having difficulty getting the quick connect fitting on the back of the fuel rail to connect with the return fuel line. I then noticed...
