  9. Hey all!so I'm trying to set the timing on the distributor due the comanche stopping hard when turning key off.I'm not exactly sure how to do it on my 1989 4.0 manual.can i just loosen the bolts and turn it alittle until it sounds right??? Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk
  10. Update of sorts.so after cleaning the throttle body i now can accelerate up steep hills in fifth gear which is what i was aiming for..wooo!haha.got new shock absorbers on.just cheap ones.bout to put in new fuel pump.hopefully that helps with the hard 3 crank start.I'm also switching to the 2.50 gallon unleaded non ethanol gas cause i guess jeeps back then ran on non ethanol additive.ten percent ethonal is 1.90 gallon haha.still trying to figure out why it pulls to the right.i havnt put much effort into that.all in all it runs good.

  11. hey thank u so much Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk
  12. like the hoses are for ccv or pcv whichever right haha ccv has a way smaller opening goinh into valve cover but hey I'm no mechanic and parts store they seem to think only pcv system exist.anywhat...they connect to let me see on page 2300 of manual hmmmm yup not sure what part to buy and replace.I'm thinking maybe its stuck open whatever valve that is..maybe the crank case valve thingy part number something haha gotta call jeep tomorrow for sure Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk
  13. the l shaped hose going into the air box is whats leaking.second pic is where it connects from air box.what exactly is this and the valves? in the second pic? Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk
  14. could u please let me know where i can find one.(parts store?)part number?name of hose?it kinda bugs me that it got ripped when mechanic put on the master cylinder n didnt even tell me haha my heat idiot light was coming on also after getting it back.never done that before now it does.prob not going to take it back to ol daniel at all tech in murray ky.not the first thing ive found disconnected after him working on it.eighty dollars n hour they get paid just to secretly pull fast ones.i know all bout mechanics and the great work they do lmdo oh well thats why alot of people do their own vehicle work so they know exactly whats been done.take to a mechanic and u don't know what the @#$%er done to it lol Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk
  15. so I'm still trying to figure out if putting the pcv valve and hose that goes on the back valve cover did any thing bad like causing the smoke to come out of mine oil cap haha the pcv is way more open than the ccv connection so I'm thinking(hoping) that its letting way to much air to enter.

  16. replacing the whole emissions system.hoses valves sensors everything this saturday wooo.not losing but a couple drops of oil into the air filter box as of now but before it was every where in there(no puddle just spray).when i open the oil cap smoke rolls out.this is the one time when u hope the mechanic messed up and put the wrong hose/valve on Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk
  17. so yeah i checked all the emission hoses and it seems they are all unclogged except the front one on the valve cover which i believe is the inlet hose as the back is the outlet.i am not to sure if disconnecting it at the v cover that there should be air blowing through hose from air box or what I'm still trying to figure that all out haha.not even sure where the pcv er ccv valve is located on ol mud bud haha i have tried asking about the ccv system but everytime i query it in the parts store it results in pcv coming up haha the oil/gas has stopped coming into air box so thinking it was just what happens when clean throttle body.when i take off oil cap on v cover smoke jist helps itself out of the hole with no trouble at all so that has got me worried there shouldn't be smoke being pushed out haha so on to the next chapter yall Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk
  18. hey thank you for replying about that.i was thinking maybe it had something to do with y there is now oil/gas? in my air filter box after getting it back from this highly acclaimed mechanic haha my air filter is soaked on both ends with oil n gas blow back i suspect.i asked him to change the valve cover emission line n gasket and on my recent it says pcv replaced.i thought it was supposed to be ccv.the one i had on was 90 degree bent hose on valve cover this new one is just looped up and over to my ccv valve regulator thing haha not good with vehicle terminology as u can tell.do u know if this is whats causing the blow by.i checked all the other lines they seem good.whats the hose on the front for.I'm lost.i feel like i should be paying u haha.and the air intake big hose that goes to the throttle bottle which i had him clean( probably what made him tear up my heat return hose geez) doesnt feel like there is any air coming out of it when truck 8s on.does that hose get air when its connected to filter box?I'm so lost and getting to the point where I'm like emptying the bank account on ol mud bud lmdo Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk
  19. routine maintenance almost complete haha might be able to actually upgrade some things finally.its funny how getting a new to u vehicle u think everything is fine it runs great until u actually drive it for more than ten minutes and every little thing that is going to go wrong or is wrong with it shows.i just look at it as a great hobby that i enjoy doing.took it down to the lake off road at night through the narrowest holiest limb covered slightly down hill ground ive been on in quite some time and ol mud bud acted like it found its long lost love again.i literally just kept it in neutral all the way down and it went over and through two foot deep trenches foot around limbs and mud ponds like it was driving up the driveway to its home haha loved it!!! mud buds long lost love used her claws on it on their first date by ripping off the roof/door trim piece..found it in the bed the next morning n snapped it back on. little one inch bend in the trim piece now for a happy comanche owner Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk
  20. man it is one thing after another with mud bud.what an @$$ its being haha Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk
