  1. I appreciate the input. I used my own spare today and hoping someone has discovered an interchange that will work in it's place. I spent the afternoon looking for one of these with no luck. I know I could source a replacement block from a salvage yard, but was hoping to find just the switch with fresh plastic that doesn't just crack as my original did. Frustrated with throwing away otherwise good parts (and being jacked up by dealerships).
  2. Brake fluid pressure sensor mounts in the top of the distribution manifold - triggers the brake warning light on the dash. Two pin on my '91. Anyone have a part number for one of these ? Any brand, Mopar preferred. My local AZ can't find a number for it. Any help appreciated -
  3. The gauge is easy to find but I had no luck with the link to Casper for the adaptor and a search of the site failed as well. Ebay, Amazon (may be the right one but in quantities of ten) no luck. Probably my search description is missing the mark but would appreciate a link if anyone knows where to get them. And are they 37 degree flare or 45? Thanks much -
  4. My old friend is back on the road. My inexperience with these problems is apparent (I bent nails for a living - construction) but this has been a frustrating yet challenging and rewarding experience. Apparently it was the perfect storm. Crank sensor and fuel pump (10 lbs.) were dropping out at the same time. Along the way my distributor had seen better days. All have been replaced and I -and my dogs - are happy to be back in the Comanche. Advice given here was of tremendous help. I assumed I needed a scanner to read the trouble codes but this forum has saved my butt. Many thanks to all for your input..
  5. Apologies. My questions have detoured Coolwind's thread so I've started another. I thought I was headed where he is regarding the repair but the consensus is that it's unlikely to be a problem with the ECU in any case. You've given me good advice and everyone's input is much appreciated -
  6. First, I'm not the mechanic many of you are here but here is what I got. I have a '91 with 4.0. It started slow for about a week but I hoped it was just the ethanol gas Now it starts hard or not at all, then sputters, stalls if I try to drive it. First I had a new crank sensor installed at a shop (blown back means I can't do the stoop, shimmy, twist under the truck anymore).Process of elimination the cam sensor, distributor cap, rotor have all been replaced. Disconnecting the MAP sensor lets it idle but not run correctly. I had the instrument cluster out chasing a short and wonder if that could have caused the problem. What am I missing? Is my ECU likely the problem? If so, smarter to have my original rebuilt or just do the exchange and any recommendations for a quality rebuilder would be appreciated. If I need another ECU will it learn the truck or do I have to take it to a shop for programming? Lots of questions but would appreciate any advice.
  7. Not hijacking the thread but would like to avoid this kind of problem if possible. Mine is '91 so not renix -
  8. Any advantage to having my original ecu rebuilt versus just exchange for another? Any recommendations for a shop that rebuilds them (quality work, warranty, etc.)?
  9. Yes, I saw that after I made the post. My bad (stupidity), I should have read the rules before I jumped the gun. Not sure if that applies to the pm's. Anyone know? Glad the radio found a good home -
  10. Also I cannot reply in the classifieds. The "reply" option is not present on my screen in the For Sale or Wanted sections.
  11. Very much appreciated -
  12. I thought my problems were solved but apparently not. I'm signed in now but cannot send PM's. Attempts to contact a moderator about it have also failed. Email link does not work for me - all come back as "Unable to deliver message after multiple retries, giving up."

    90 XJ Part Out

    I would love to have the dash out of this XJ if it truly has no cracks. Problem is I'm in New Mexico (no rust but the sun kills all plastic). I offer an extra $50 plus all shipping costs if you would consider shipping it. I thank you in any case -

    New Here

    I've lurked this site for several years and finally joined a few weeks ago. Been trying to figure out how to introduce myself, hope this works. I retired recently and plan on cleaning up my '91 for some exploring. I'm not an off roader as much as a back roader in my native New Mexico but will be looking to buy a few parts and probably sell a few. I've already learned a lot following the tech threads, great forum -
