so around 80 bucks new is reasonable for a fuel pump

yeah I'm def into screwing something up myself before i spend the green and get it done right...theres no rust on the gas tank or anywhere else i have found thus far on the whole truck. that was one of the determining factors for purchse 1. i can put a dog box in the back 2. its a jeep 3. no rust 4. motors not locked 5...800 bucks and its a jeep.. now i just need to find a placed that doesnt want 80 plus for a fuel pump....

has anyone done this or have any ideas on how to do it. I just pulled my fuel pump and it was nasty, I mean nasty. the PO stated the truck had been sitting for a few months but after looking at this I would venture at least a year. I havent droppped the tank yet its on tomorrows agenda just thought id try to get some ideas...

just bought the truck a couple days ago for 800. little rust on driver's floor. ill probably end up cutting it out and welding some new sheet metal in. anyone know where to get a fuel pump reasonable. advance want 80 something for them...where is a good place to look for parts and accessories (IE fuel tank)?

no home remedies for cleaning the tank?

after some wrenching i got the timing set it was 180 off. with a little starter spray i got it to fire. then i went to the fuel pump and it wasnt running, removed it and oh my god...think I'm gonna need to drop the tank. does anyone know how to clean out a gas tank I'm sure its cruddy as all get out...

thanks Jp big help my wires were set off one counterclockwise....now to my next issue, since I thought i had it right last night when i wrenched on the truck, with the #1 cyl set a TDC the button should be at the #1 spark plug and the end that fits into the rotor should be at the #6 plug right? or did i totally screw my self?

can anyone help me out with the diagram above. On the image above the mounting screws line up to the #5 cylinder, on my truck the line up to the #1 cylinder. If done properly should the #6 plug wire be between the #3 and 4 cylinder or does the image of the distributp cap just need to be rotated in the image?

1988 4l 5spd. Looking for a new wiring harness so i can un do the splice jb the PO put in

I just noticed something else looking at the diagram of the dist. my cap mounting holes doint point to the #5 cyl they are pointing towards the #1 cyl, is that normal.... assuming the screw placement in the diagram is incorrect, would the #6 plug wire still point between the #3 and 4 cylinders? or is the diagram incorrect? can someone snap a closeup pic of their dist mounting and the cap please and post it on here for me.. i edited the pic of the diagram above but can't figure out how to post it on here...

Does anyone know where I can get an aftermarket wiring harness for a comanche the one in the truck has been "fixed" in numerous places by the PO and is a basket case...

have compression, not sure what the poundage is, but sounds decent with the plugs removed turning the engine by hand. What is an injector pulse and how the heck do i check that?

eagle--wouldnt i need a new intake manifold? the truck didnt run when i bought it and the previous owner stated it had been sitting for about six months, without being started etc..

I'm getting spark at the plugs, fuel at the fuel rail, however I'm not sure the pounds and its not firing, itll crank all day long (until I kill another battery) but won't start. I just bought the think to use as a woods truck and have tried everything i can think of. checked the firing order, spark, fuel pump turning on, bypassing the resistor on the driver's side under the hood (white ceramic thing) and have no other idea why it won't start, any help is appreciated. its a 88 4.0 5spd 4wd pioneer, thats all i know about it..

I was wondering if anyone had switched their 4.0 from fuel injeciton to a carb. Were any 4.0s carb or are all of them fuel injected. Sick of dealing with all the problems with my FI system and looking for an easier to work on system. any thoughts or tips would be greatly appreciated
