    87 4.0 AW4 MJ quit running?

    Driving down the road about 50 mph thinking "this old truck is running great", so I guess I brought this on myself. From 50 mph it started loosing power so I pulled over and tried to restart it, it cranks strong, has strong spark and even fires on a cylinder or two but will not run. My first...

    renix injector seal kit

    I have a mild rough idle and crappy milage and though I'd get the seal kit rather than the whole injector at 10 times the price. I removed the rail, pulled the injectors off of it and can manage replacing the o-rings; can anyone tell me what the hard plastic ring and the plastic hat shaped item...

    AW4 help

    I serched without success and I'm hoping some of you know what's up with my trans. It could be that it's just worn out after 200k but it's a new trick after sitting for several months so I don't think so. Accellerating from a stop, the trans shifts unusually fast up through the gears and stays...

    Torque converter opinions

    Is there a better than stock torque converter available for the aw4 in my 87 MJ? I'm swaping 4wd parts over to a 2wd truck because it's in much better shape, has a rebuilt engine and air and it's a short bed instead of my current longbed. Thanks for any opinions.

    Oil pump ??

    I'm replacing my oil pump today not rebuilding the engine and the manual said to just run the engine, nothing at all about priming. Is the pump self priming or have the writers of the FSM dropped the ball yet again?

    Sludge build up

    I finally pulled the valve cover off my 180k 87 4.0 mj that I've owned for 6 months and I'm worried about how much sludge buildup it had. Between each set of valves there was up to 1 1/4" of dried brittle sludge, what a mess. I scraped it loose and blew it out of the head with the discharge of...

    Gearing

    It's too late for me to change my axle build but I'm wondering if I made a huge mistake in gearing. I read several articles and used the math provided to retain the stock ratio after converting to my desired tire size (35's) and the math came out to 4.43 and I went to 4.56's partially because I...
