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 ?

Rough running 95 Cherokee 4.0L
Fernando87mj replied to tugalo's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
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 -
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.

A/C R12-to-R12a Refrigerant Recharge Results
Fernando87mj replied to HOrnbrod's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
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 . -
Found this guy at a local Jeep dealership
Fernando87mj replied to JeepsOLot's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
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 -

Fernando87mj replied to SBpunk's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
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 . -

Fuel tank lock ring
Fernando87mj replied to Fernando87mj's topic in MJ Tech: Modification and Repairs
Hmm oh okay I see it , I'll give that a try thanks a lot for the help guys ! -
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

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.
