I found a Jeep in the JY with dealer installed air conditioning. The was a metal T in the lower radiator hose that had a fan sensor in it.

Okay. If the yellow wire is hot with the key on and the alternator stud shows battery voltage all the time, the alternator is no good.

Find a can of BG 44K and put it in your gas tank. You'll be happy.

So the yellow wire is not hot with the key on?

Yes, the yellow wire is hot with key on. What voltage do you have at the alternator stud? Same as battery?

Which side of theTPS did you use for your adjustment? Engine or trans? If you use the trans side for diagnostics/adjustment and the engine side of the TPS is wonky, you're working with false info.

Ok, so yellow wire is now hot with the key on, you've got battery voltage at the stud on the alternator all the time? Should charge unless alternator is bad.

Pay particluar attention to the "important note". 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: 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. If you see more than 1 ohm of resistance 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 a three-wire TPS mounted on the throttle body. This manual transmission vehicle TPS provides data input to the ECU. The manual transmission TPS 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. Adjust the TPS until you have achieved this percentage. If you can't achieve the correct output voltage replace the TPS and start over. 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--FOR 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. 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. If you have TRANSMISSION issues check the four-wire connector side of the TPS. If you have ENGINE issues check the 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 11-28-2011

There were only 150 of them left in this country at Chrysler when I posted that info up a while back. I'd check with your dealer first.

Pull the front one and match it up.

Yep. Crank and rods. don't waste any time getting it.

So go get it. Who cares how many counterweights although it will be 12.

Try it and find out. Post back while sitting at your PC with a sore leg. LOL.Old trick.

So who tightened that bolt up in the first place?

What country are you from?

Have you ever tried just pumpling the clutch pedal about 50 times non-stop, without going quite to the floor, and then walking away for 15 minutes?

Me, too.

You're right, it was. Might have trouble finding one though.

Bellhousing is different between the two trannies.

Those calipers look like the Chevy Monte Carlo ones that I used on my FJ40. FJ had park brake on the drive shaft. Take one to the parts store, like Napa, and have them compare it to the ones in their BOOK.

Spray around the intake where it meets the head with a liquid. Throttle body cleaner works well. You'll know when you hit a vacuum leak.

We aren't gonna know nothing for sure until this is done.

Vacuum leak at the intake manifold under high vacuum as in decelerating?

Or a leaking oil sender or leaky oil filter adapter seals. As suggested, go take a look. Start at the top. It's all gonna end up dripping from the engine at the RMS area so don't jump on that first.

Sounds like major BS to me.
