Jtrux

Yea, I saw that as I was getting under there, however, when I pulled it, this is what I found. No wonder it wouldn't start. Time to order some parts. Where can I find a new sending unit for this thing??? After being disappointed by that, I decided to clean up the interior before sitting down to order some parts. It is cleaning up well. Just need to get a new window crank.

A previous co-worker has had this Jeep for quite a few years and I've always thought about buying it. He drove it very little if at all so I knew the mileage was low. I inquired a few weeks back and got the scoop on it and decided to go for it. 1987 MJ 2.5 cyl 5 speed (I'm almost sure it is an AX5 since it looks identical on the outside to my other Jeep's AX15) 4WD 64,000 original miles It's pretty darn solid other than a few small cosmetic issues. When I went to pick it up I couldn't get it started unless I used starter fluid and it would not stay running. I couldn't hear the pump running so kinda gave up on starting it and went on to negotiate price. Once we agreed on a price, we loaded it up and now she's mine. I'm currently sitting at home waiting for the FedEx man to deliver my new Bosch fuel pump. I've got the bolts soaking and will start dropping the tank shortly. I'm short on pics at the moment but I'll take more as I go and as she gets cleaned up. My plans are to keep it bone stock and drive it. I already have a "customized" Jeep so another is not needed nor wanted.
