Tighten the belt.

What's wrong with the one in the radiator? Why change it?

Eliminator was a TRIM package only for the most part.

Does someone have a trailer harness hacked into the back of your truck? Have you used a test light or meter to check for power and grounds?

Tighten the belt.

Of course. Harmless bull snakes aka gopher snakes. Rule of thumb is if they act pissy, leave them alone or just scoot them out of the road. If not pissy, pick em up!! Can you imagine how difficult it is to steer a vehicle with one of those guys wrapped around your arm on the way home?

CPS can be tested. CRUISER'S MOSTLY RENIX TIPS RENIX CPS TESTING AND ADJUSTING OCTOBER 30, 2015 SALAD 131 COMMENTS Renix CPSs have to put out a strong enough signal to the ECU so that it will provide spark. Most tests for the CPS suggest checking it for an ohms value. This is unreliable and can cause some wasted time and aggravation in your diagnosis of a no-start issue as the CPS will test good when in fact it is bad. The problem with the ohms test is you can have the correct amount of resistance through the CPS but it isn’t generating enough voltage to trigger the ECU to provide spark. Unplug the harness connector from the CPS. Using your voltmeter set on AC volts and probing both wires in the connector going to the CPS itself as shown in Figure 2 as Connector A, crank the engine over. It won’t start with the CPS disconnected. You should get a reading of .5 AC volts. If you are down in the .35 AC volts range or lower on your meter reading, you can have intermittent crank/no-start conditions from your Renix Jeep. Some NEW CPSs (from the big box parts stores) have registered only .2 AC volts while reading the proper resistance!! That’s a definite no-start condition. Best to buy your CPS from NAPA or the dealer. Sometimes on a manual transmission equipped Renix Jeep there is an accumulation of debris on the tip of the CPS. It’s worn off clutch material and since the CPS is a magnet, the metal sticks to the tip of the CPS causing a reduced voltage signal. You MAY get by with cleaning the tip of the CPS off. A little trick for increasing the output of your CPS is to drill out the upper mounting hole to 3/8″ from the stock 5/16″, or slot it so the CPS bracket rests on the bell housing when pushed down. Then, when mounting it, hold the CPS down as close to the flywheel as you can while tightening the bolts. Another little tip to save tons of aggravation is to stick a bit of electrical tape to your 11mm socket and then shove the bolt in after it. This reduces the chances of dropping that special bolt into the bell housing.

why not replace the bolt with washer and tighten up all the other bolts? Half hour job.

This^^^ has been my experience.

Likely because the oxygen sensor got some carb cleaner on it.

It has a leaking intake manifold then. How about the rest of the intake manifold? Have you sprayed it?

Most likely. What about on the intake manifold?

Horn relay?

Wait til you see the cost to rebuild it.

Perfect time to convert to rear discs using 94 to 98 Grand Cherokee parts.

way cool!!

Rereading this. The ballast resistor could be bad. Jumper it and see what happens.

LOL.

You are SO busted!! Tip 5 is a biggie.

What were the results of Tip 5?

spray carb cleaner around suspected area at idle and see what happens.

I just flat-@$$ wouldn't go down the 5000 pound towing road. Pun intended.

So, it has spark at the plugs, right? Blue and not orange? How are you checking for fuel? With a gauge or just depressing the schrader valve on the fuel rail?
