    Help!!! Jeep turns over but won't fire!

    My 94 XJ SE 2Dr 5spd 4.0L is in the shop, getting body work done, but it won't start. My mechanic is not the best with electrical but he is a Mopar guy and we have done all the obvious stuff and are stuck. I am planning on having a Jeep specialist take it in a couple days, unless we can figure...

    Filling up Manual Tranny and Tcase levels.

    '94 XJ 4.0L 2dr 5spd SE. NP242 (select-trac) Tcase. Since the budget is super tight, I am going to a friend's place this weekend to use his garage since he is handier with cars then me and he has the tools and space. I need to do front brake pads and oil, so I might also ask his help in...

    Nasty front end noises only when 4wd is engaged

    My rig: '94 XJ 2dr 5-speed SE. 4.0L, select-trac transfer case, which was replaced from a '96 unit 3 years ago. Bear with me while I put this in perspective. I have had this rig for 6 years, this was the first year I ran full synthetic oil in the engine and I like how the engine response is...

    Anyone rebuild their 4.0 XJ starter?

    I have a 94 XJ - 5spd 2dr 4.0L The solenoid is sticking often on my jeep. Seems temperature dependent. Also, the battery is tired, but is running fine now that temps have risen. it seems weather depending and both humidity and temperature fluctuate wildly in Vermont. Thankfully, I can reach...

    HELP! Changed oil now engine misfiring!

    I have 2 other related threads to my oil change saga, but this seems to merit a new thread. My Jeep: '94 XJ SE 2dr 5spd 4.0L All I did was change my oil and now the engine runs very rough. It used to run as smooth as a dream and now I guess it is misfiring. If I rev it in neutral, it seems...

    Replacement drivers seat choices

    (as an aside) I am getting tired of not being able to have a sig to state my XJ specs. If I am missing something in the control panel someone message me. '94 XJ 5spd 4.0L 2dr SE. Chrysler axle. So the 94 (I believe pre 96) has no raised floor for the front seat, making the transfer case...

    It has been a very Jeep day

    My XJ sits near a main truck route for all to see. '94 2dr, 5spd 4.0L SE Blue, 167k miles on it. So today I was heading out to go walk the dog and a minivan with Mass plates rolls up and a couple guys get out asking me if I'd like to sell my rig. They have a friend who really wants a 2-door...

    Synthetic oil for a Jeep that sits?

    These days it seems weird but I only drive my XJ once a week on a short trip to town. '94 2dr 4.0L XJ SE. I need to do oil soon, and have always run conventional oil, but last year I did both the rear main seal and the filter adapter. So I suppose I do not have to worry about a synthetic oil...

    Stopping oil leak in drain plug. - Silicone grease?

    This is borderline a OEM/ModTech question so I am just posting here. After monkeying with my oil pan drain plug last year, I got an oversized self tapping plug and it leaks a tiny bit of oil on the ground. Maybe a quart in 1 month, but it can be more depending on temperature and how much I...

    4.0L to Carburetor conversion question

    I know people think there is absolutely no reason for doing this and I am not here to stir up that debate. I am just curious if anyone knows what happens (from experience or second hand) to rigs that convert the 4.0 Fuel injected rig to a Carburetor. As I understand it, it is a fairly simply...

    8.8 axle swap - dirty details?

    I am strongly considering swapping out the rear axle this year in my '94 4.0L 2dr XJ SE. It currently has the Chrysler axle but I am sick of drum brakes and will probably have to do rear brakes this year. I figure the 8.8 Axle swap is the cheapest way to get disc brakes and upgrade my rig at...

    '94 OBDI codes and wiring projects

    My rig: '94 XJ SE 2dr 5spd 4wd selec-trac 168k miles. I guess I'm not allowed a signature yet. So I ran the codes today and see I have three issues. Since it is an OBDI, things are simple, but I am wondering if my friend who is handy with electrical can help me fix some things before winter...

    Replace sway bar to extend bushing life?

    So I did sway bar bushings maybe 3 or 4 years ago, with about 50k miles since, and now the bushings are slipping, stripping off the outer layer of rust but the bar is still solid. Probably the original. When we last did bushings, one of the bolts snapped and the mechanic had to cut into the...

    axle swap gear ratio question

    This is a hypothetical since I don't have the money to do it, but I wanna get my wish list straight. I have a '94 XJ 4.0L SE 5 speed Select-trac. I have the Chrysler axle with 3.07 gears. I want a Ford 8.8 to get disc brakes and add a leaf while I am at it. I am fixing a broken e-brake...

    Help - strange noise at nighway speeds when giving it gas in gear

    I haven't driven my '94 XJ (4.0L 5spd SE, slec-trac) much at highway speeds but I know I have a wheel balance issue. For around town driving, keeping it around 50mph I am fine. I just drove down to a friend's 150 miles away and it is all interstate, and I noticed a pretty serious noise. The...

    Accessory plug next to cig lighter? Also - instrument panel swaps?

    I was taking apart the dash today to rewire the stereo and install a kill switch in my cig lighter panel. The panel above that is just for show so I am glad I could put some more gauges or toys there if need be. There is a grey plug with maybe 6 connections in a cavity to the left of my cig...

    New to forum - I have an XJ

    I figured I should drop in and say hi before I post a hi-tech thread. This looks like the place to be for an XJ owner. Also my best friend is running a rusted out Ford Ranger maybe one year more and said he wants to get an XJ so I will let him know about this forum. I have a Blue (almost...
