Is the tube clear of crud? You can get a new hose and grommet for about $8 from Napa or Dorman. See my Tip #22 for the numbers.

Injector #3 goes into E3 on the c101. CTS goes into B1 on the c101.

Can you give us the letter and number designation of the position of the wires at least on one side of the connector?

Where can I get some of those? That's happens to me all the time. That isn't the ONLY reason that you can get that symptom. That said, contact Programbo on Cherokee forum for a refurbished set of 746 injectors. Of my Tips, how many have you completed?

The OEM Deka injectors are prone to cracking at a seam on the body and spraying raw fuel on the engine/exhaust manifold. That's why people upgrade when they need injectors.

That's the leakdown test I was referring to.......

Did you shorten the flutes in the valve cover? You know the problem with them is that they reached all the way down to the oil splash on top of the head. Took very little pressure from the crankcase to get oil to be sucked out the flutes. I did originally ... Then went one step further ... HO head, and the valve cover and CCV system off my '00 XJ (which has a 93 head and VC with no blood or oil in the filter). CCV was replaced with new parts back in October. I thought that green valve cover might be a later model one.....

So, how are we gonna quantify "excessive" pressure? How often do 4.0s have bad rings? Rarely. What if an unsuspecting newbie somehow thought his crankcase pressure was excessive so rebuilt his engine when it didn't need it? All it needed was the dreaded valve cover removal/modification and subsequent replacement of some inexpensive vacuum harnesses? A proper suggestion would be that if you suspect excessive crankcase pressure, have a leakdown test performed to verify.

Crankcases make pressure naturally. It's when the CCV system can't handle it that oil gets into the air cleaner. Can EXCESSIVE pressure contribute to it? Yes. Is some pressure indicative of ring failure? No. You guys probably weren't around when cars had a crankcase vent tube pointing to the ground where all the crankcase pressure went.

Well, they weren't experiencing ring failure when these things were under warranty........ That's when these fixes came about.

Search me.... And if air is being pushed out, the CCV system at the rear may be clogged or old. Did you guys know they changed it? The grommet and orifice/tube back there? Know why? Imagine this, but oil was getting in the air cleaner!!!! Tip 22 outlines the correct vacuum harnesses. The tube from the rear of the valve cover to the intake manifold is part number BK 715-1365 or Dorman 46005 and comes with the valve cover grommet.

That line is no longer available. You have to get creative. While using rubber line to repair the broken piece will get you home, the rest of the plastic line is still prone to cracking in the future.

Mine also.

Mine aren't.

I've got a 3.73 ring and pinion for a 44.

Yup. Normal stuff......

Hey mon. Eets all about da krome.

Of course you kept the chrome moldings..............

You have email.

They suck for DD use for sure. See if you can find a set of JK Rubicon shocks that were removed when a guy added a lift. they're nice. Have to change some ends but it's no big deal for a man of your caliber.

Those are the Volvo injectors. I'm betting something is amiss regarding the installation.

Here's a new adventure for ya: http://comancheclub.com/topic/33662-refurbishing-the-fuel-sender/

Numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 19, and 21 What were the results of 5?

Where would I be without my support system? LOL
