Did you try ebay?

I take it the rear window doesn't slide?

OK so guess what, by gauge reads high by like 40 or 50 degrees. Guess I have no problem.

Well since the mj never warmed up now that weather has cooled down I figured the thermostat must be stuck open. Went to change it with a 190 dgree thermostat and found out ther was no thermostat in the truck. Guess the PO took it out to resolve the overheating issues. Now my truck idles at 215 to 220 and gets hotter as I drive down the road even though it's 30 degrees outside. I just flushed the system added the thermostat and replaced the plastic tank and lid by the firewall due to a crack. I even bled the coolant through the temp sensor in the back of the head and the truck will get really hot unless I kick the heat on full blast which isn't a problem now but will be in the summer. To top it all off I can't get the electric fan to work. I checked the motor by hooking it up to the battery, it worked, changed the sensor switch on the radiator and changed the relay on the driver's side fender and still no go. The radiator is not the original and looks to be in good condition from the outside. Anybody got a clue on what to do next?

you may have dirty injectors. or a dirty air filter. i would say get injector cleaner and clen them out real good and see what happens. BUT, before you do anything run your tank of gas to empty and fill her up somewhere different, quite possible you have bad gas. Not that, I tried that.

The O2 sensor is new. But I thought it doesn't even kick in until the car is warm and this problem happens cold or hot.

You wanna know what's strange. If I drive a while and turn it off and turn it back on. It seems to run better. The more I do this the better it runs. Do you think it might be the CPS?

I hooked up a gauge to the valve on the rail. The PSI is on spec with the vaccum hose on and off but I only did it while it was idling. The fuel filter is new. The truck just runs like crap from 1700 rpm. So I either have to lightly tap the gas or gun it. It's an automatic by the way. It just feels like it's not getting enough gas. By the way what's that stuff you said and where do I get it?

Is it possible that the fuel pump gets enough pressure at idle, but driving it's not pushing out enough fuel causing the truck to stutter and feel like it's putsin along.

Do you know what temperature your truck is running at?

Are you still having this problem?

Which problem did it solve

Help me!!! I can not for the life of me get this truck to run right. I'm still having this problem where the truck stutters at 2000 rpm until it shifts. We replaced the TPS and tried adjusting it. The output is 4.2 volts but we can't get the input at 5 volts. Do yinz think we need to try a different TPS because this one might be faulty?

Do you think if it's at .82 it could cause problems?

Hey guys. Any body know what the TPS should read on a MT2500 snap on scanner. Is it .83? I know at the connector its 5v input and 4.2 output.

Is anyone still interested in the door panels? Yeah I am. But give me a litle time . I gotta fix some other stuff first.

Yeah, there's no one around here except someone in lancaster I think. Are you up near wellsboro?

On my 88 4.0 the color is orange if that's what you are asking.

Tell him to email me. I'll buy em.

Being a complete novice I think this is a fantastic idea. I betcha between all the members in this furum we can come up with a complete rebuild manual. From experience though I gotta tell you that it would be great if when we did this it would be word for word with pictures for idiots like me. The only thing I ever did to a car myself was change the oil until I bought this truck. After three months now I've changed my plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter, O2 sensor, TPS sensor, master cylinder, front u-joints, brake pads, calipers, brake lines. I've rewired evry single harness to the truck and completely exchanged dash and cluster from an xj to my mj. I couldn't have done any of this without the help of the members on this forum. No mechanic in my area would even take a look at my truck. The jeep dealer even laughed when I told them what I had. They were absolutely no help. I'll definetly pitch in my part by doing a write-up with every thing I have left to do. Up next, CPS and MAp sensor. :popcorn:

You guys know that you can buy a TJ and get a brute conversion kit from quadratech if you guys want that truck right. It's ten grand for the kit I think.

Paint every thing and ready to bolt back on. Let me know.

I'll buy a set if you can make em. Let me know about price.

I Had this same problem. It started with the horn. The meltdown started in the steering culumn and ended up going evrywhere. I had to change the wiring harness in the cab the fuse box and the harness going to the bay all the way to the relays. Take your steering culumn apart and see if the wires are melted in there to start. Do not drive it because you could have an electrical fire like I did and I just made it worse b driving it. Good luck.
