  1. My 2014 Jeep Compass has a closed cooling system sorta , it has a filler neck on the hose . The radiator doesn't have a cap . Does that count as a closed system ?
  2. Those look just like the plastic push rivets that are used in the cab side vents . I'm pretty certain those are plastic
  3. I'm late , but thanks a lot guys , I really appreciate the kind words , it really means a lot , and yes hornbrod is right
  4. Yes that'll affect it a lot
  5. Mj parts manual . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Turns out I had the same problem, same symptoms and same harness blocking the door , all is well now , interior is going back together now Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Any tips on what to look for ? Just got done with my heater core and have everything back together and the air is only blowing through the bottom.
  8. Blue heelers keeping me company right now as I do my heater core Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Blue heeler ?
  10. Wouldn't that be from a bad throttle body gasket ? Or a broken vacuum line which in return makes it run to lean if it's the throttle body gasket or to Rich if the vacuum line is messed up? Maybe I'm wrong but it seems like those things are worth checking
  11. Is it possible to try to make that hole in the new evaporator? Or would that ruin it ? Just curious since I want to replace mines to.
  12. Mmmmmm, chrome. :drool: Beautiful truck............ I'm honored , A compliment from hornbrod . I love chrome , you're truck is what inspired me to change the front end from black to chrome . People my age like to black out their trucks but I love chrome . I have since replaced the cracked grill with a new one Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Mines looks tiny compared to the others but 235s and stock height Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Switch the a/c controls to on and then jumper the switch on top of the filter/drier with a paper clip. to see if the compressor kicks on , if it does check if the fan turns on too , on my mines the idle also kicked up , not sure if that's normal or not. And one more thing don't leave it on for to long because you can cause damage If their isn't any freon or its low .
  15. My shortbox , also has a factory d44 with trac lok , maybe you'll get lucky and that one will have it ? Maybe ? Judging from the gauges it appears to be a late 87 or maybe even a 88 , my 87 has the early Amc blue face gauges
  16. Honestly I would just make sure that the fuel injectors aren't leaking fuel into the cylinders which might cause a hard start and smelly oil .
  17. 87 . They switched to eight slot in 88
  18. Just an update for closure , if anyone wondered , I went to an oreillys and they had a copper heater core in stock Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. The arrow one is the "shift light " which supposedly comes on at a certain rpm to maximize mpg
  20. What a beauty , hope to get mines as good as this one someday .
  21. And this is how they look at night just incase anyone is curious, (with the normal bulb)I'm pretty happy with it considering it was plug and play 1987 4.0 d44 ba-10/5
  22. Hmm oh okay I see it , I'll give that a try thanks a lot for the help guys !
  23. My fuel tank leaks after filling more than 3/4 , gasket has been replaced twice and it still leaks and it's getting annoying. I have a new mopar seal this time waiting to be installed What tips/advice do you Guys have for replacing the seal . Here's how the lock ring is sitting as of now , it looks a little odd to me but i can't tell what's wrong Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Swb,4.0,d44,BA-10/5
  24. In my household there's both, the Comanche , and a 2001 Toyota Tundra 4.7 v8 , the tundra has been really reliable , small problems , one of them has always been the brake rotors , always needing replacing after 15,000-30,000 miles , in the 8 years it's been in the family it's needed a radiator , throttle body cleaning , a serpentine belt , a/c knobs are known for breaking due to brittle plastic and also the engine can develop exhaust leaks through the manifold cracking or the gasket going bad . The transmission is the a340 which is similar to the aw4 used in Cherokees /Comanches with the 4.0 , the tranny is know to be very reliable , another thing to consider is that if your starter is to ever go bad you must remove the engines intake to access the starter , and also the engine is timing belt driven and an interference engine . On the other hand the Comanche has needed , 2 coolant bottles , 1 belt , 1 fuel pump , 1 clutch slave/master cylinder , 1 thermostat and water pump , 1 brake switch , 1 tps and the usual maintenance items , both vehicles have been very reliable but I personally rather drive the Comanche 1000x , it's unique , reliable , good looking , and fun to drive but I'm a little bias too.the tundra has 214,xxx miles.
