  1. My money's on the fact that your throttle body to MAP sensor tube/hose got broken in the process or the MAP sensor is unplugged.
  2. Bypass the fuel pump resistor and see what happens.
  3. Yes, and attaches underneath the passenger side top bell housing to engine bolt.
  4. good point, my local advance has one for 36 bucks but i can't remember if it's a moog or not, Redwolf Go buy it.............
  5. Sounds like there might be a class-action lawsuit in the making then. I know a metalurgical expert who has a thriving consultancy providing expert testimony for such cases (like high-rise crane failure, and the Mississippi River Bridge collapse in Minnesota). If there are any interested parties here who can provide failed parking brake parts and evidence of the consequences of failure, let me know and I could see if he is interested. You want evidence of consequence of failure? http://comancheclub.com/topic/40785-comanche-coulda-killed-me-some-pics-not-for-the-weak-stomach/ My parking brake also doesn't work. But haven't looked at it to see what's wrong with it, as I've got an automatic and "park" still works. I know it's true. ALL of them were POSs.
  6. It took you a long time to find the bad one you've got!!!!!
  7. Yes you need it. I'm pretty sure all years are the same. Why a used one though? You already have one of those.....
  8. Funny that the recall seemd to only include the 86s. They all popped of through 92.
  9. That's obvious. So what part of vehicles do you deal with? The radio? Perhaps we need to "tune in" to front suspension/steering components, eh? Chipmaker says: “Way more problems get solved by using your five senses under your hood rather than your ten fingers on a keyboard”
  10. Track bar runs from the bracket on the driver's side frame rail to the passenger side of the front axle. Bolts that hold the track bar bracket to the frame can APPEAR tight but are actually loose. GOTTA tighten them before spending any more time on the computer.
  11. You have put a wrench/socket on the track bar to frame rail bolts, right?
  12. Yes, a set. Better idle and throttle response. Mileage? Not really. Chances of your Jeep burning to the ground? All but eliminated.
  13. Excellent advice^^ right there.
  14. Hope it's o-rings, but it might not be......
  15. You may have fuel at the rail, but not enough of it and not at high enough pressure. I'll bet the fuel pump is dying.
  16. Renix ECM needs no training. Something else is wrong. CPS wiring on the exhaust manifold?
  17. Tan from C3 on the TCU. Goes wht/br at connector c114, 8 pin connector at right rear of rocker cover.. Shares ground (blk) with the solenoids at dipstick tube stud after going through C104, a 10 pin rectangular connector near the RH shock tower.
  18. It was called Hunter Green. I ordered one of my Comanche demos in that color.
  19. This help? http://forums.off-road.com/gm-standard-ifs-trucks-suvs/173327-speedometer-problems-how-test-vss.html
  20. RENIX TPS ADJUSTMENT Before attempting to adjust your TPS be sure the throttle body has been recently cleaned. It's especially important that the edges of the throttle butterfly are free of any carbon build-up. IMPORTANT NOTE: With the Key OFF, and using the positive (red) lead of your ohmmeter, probe the B terminal of the flat 3 wire connector of the TPS. The letters are embossed on the connector itself. Touch the black lead of your meter to the negative battery post. Wiggle the wiring harness where it parallels the valve cover and also over near the MAP sensor on the firewall. If you see more than 1 ohm of resistance, or fluctuation in your ohms reading, some modifications to the sensor ground harness will be necessary. The harness repair must be performed before proceeding. I can provide an instruction sheet for that if needed. MANUAL TRANSMISSION: RENIX manual transmission equipped XJs have only a flat three-wire TPS mounted on the throttle body and it provides data input to the ECU. It has three wires in the connector and they're clearly embossed with the letters A, B, and C. Wire "A" is positive. Wire "B" is ground. Key ON, measure voltage from "A" positive to "B" ground by back-probing the connectors. Note the voltage reading--this is your REFERENCE voltage. Key ON, back-probe the connector at wires "B" and "C". Measure the voltage. This is your OUTPUT voltage. Your OUTPUT voltage needs to be seventeen percent of your REFERENCE voltage. For example: 4.82 volts X .17=.82 volts. Loosen both T-20 Torx screws attaching the TPS to the throttle body and rotate the TPS until you have achieved your desired output voltage. Tighten the screws carefully while watching to see that your output voltage remains where it is supposed to be. If you can't achieve the correct output voltage, replace the TPS and start over. Sometimes, after adjusting your TPS the way outlined above, you may experience a high idle upon starting. If that happens, shut the engine off and reconnect your probes to B and C. Start the engine and while watching your meter, turn the TPS clockwise until the idle drops to normal and then rotate it back counterclockwise to your desired output voltage. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION: RENIX automatic transmission equipped XJs have a TPS with two connectors. There is a flat three-wire connector, same as the manual transmission vehicles have, and it is tested the same as the manual transmission equipped vehicles, as outlined above—FOR ALL ENGINE MANAGEMENT RELATED ISSUES. However, the automatic TPS also has a square four-wire connector, clearly embossed with the letters A,B,C, and D. It only uses three wires and provides information to the Transmission Control Module. THIS SQUARE FOUR WIRE CONNECTOR IS USED FOR TRANSMISSION/SHIFTING RELATED ISSUES ONLY. Key ON, measure voltage between "A" positive and "D" ground. Note the voltage. This is your REFERENCE voltage. Back-probe the connector at wires "B" and "D". Measure the voltage. This is your OUTPUT voltage. Your OUTPUT voltage needs to be eighty-three percent of your REFERENCE voltage. For example 4.8 volts X .83=3.98 volts. Adjust the TPS until you have achieved this percentage. If you can't, replace the TPS and start over. So, if you have an automatic equipped XJ your TPS has two sides--one side feeds the ECU, and the other side feeds the TCU. FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION RELATED ISSUES: Check the square four-wire connector side of the TPS. If you have ENGINE ISSUES check the flat three-wire connector side of the TPS. For those with a MANUAL TRANSMISSION--the TPS for the manual transmission XJs is stupid expensive. You can substitute the automatic transmission TPS which is reasonably priced. Revised 09-22-2012
  21. You bet.
  22. It makes a little difference. All you need to do is drill the upper hole anyway to increase the voltage. You read this? Post 7? http://www.cherokeetech.com/VBull/showthread.php?3070-Cruiser-s-Mostly-Renix-Tips&p=103796#post103796
  23. You fixed the wiring to it?
  24. Good news!! Are you wanting to advance the timing a bit, or just increase the CPS output voltage? 2 different tings. Sometimes the plastic on an old CPS will crumble away when attempting to slide it on the bar.
