Huh, I missed this but yes I will admit I have been a bit spoiled by such. Now on to some issues. Christmas day I went and cleaned all contacts for the points and that was it. Didnt try anything else. Came back today, cranked her over, can't tell if the starter hates life or if the engine doesnt like cranking while making compression. Might crack open the valve covers and just watch the action of all the lifters...that being said I took out all the spark plugs and each one has fired at least a few times as they are pretty damn black in color. I confirmed I am getting a good strong spark, it just seems like the starter needs to be replaced. But with the plugs out, itll crank all damn day without an issue. So not sure where to go with that other than replace the starter. I cleaned all the grounds and contacts. the batter cables get warm with resistance which could indicate the starter going out. Any ideas yall?

Heat and a BFH will fix these bumpers all damn day long.

Correct. None left anywhere. Model years:1986-1991. Used in 91-92 BB body Chrysler cars. Premier or Monaco

Nice! I’m genuinely curious. Hell some body shops might have NOS or even used old parts laying around. I only say this because the body shop through my work has some old parts and the one I can remember right now is an old Ford tailgate.

Good call

Make sure they don’t try to con you into an 8 slot. But if they do have some NOS I might have to make a call too lol.

Somewhere lol. Give a few phone calls to those “new” ones. I am curious.

It’s like the 21 slot and it’s header panel.

The code in the VIN itself would tell us if it is a MT or not.

Are you after one? No dealer has them I can tell ya that much.

My 88 MJ My 84 XJ 70-91 SJ Any J-truck 57 T-bird 68-70 AMX Any Pacer except the wagon 80-87 Eagle Jaguar E-type or A Datsun 240Z with the 280Z 5 speed I think thats it.

Is it not behind the seat?

I have not gone and looked for it yet, if you can get yours down and out faster than me, by all means go ahead and shoot 89 a PM.

I like how his spare has never ever seen the road.

Glad to hear that(well read)! I thought I had remembered reading about the 4.0 in the FSM277 one day.

Lol wasnt that big of a deal. Just giving ya a hard time.

Woah we can't leave JMO hanging like that lol. But JMO is usually more busy than you or I.

I am surprised you werent already doing this to shorten your list. You would probably have less stress if you knocked out the easy jobs on one day and came back to a more demanding job the next.

Welcome to the colorful history of Renix, AMC, Jeep and Renault. Theres alot to learn and alot of oddities youll find in an MJ.

Actually only 84-90 has the pins on the front header panel. 91-01 did just stick ons.

I can’t imagine the three I have are HO but to be fair, whom I got them from couldn’t remember because he pulled them sooo long ago so I’ll check the ohms. I compared them all to a NOS 23gal SU I had and they all still looked them same in terms of angle and length so I’m not exactly sure. I don’t want to hang on to these if someone needs one but I also don’t want to sell the wrong one to someone.

Any other key identifiers? I only ask because they all measure the same and one has writing on it denoting from a 90 LWB but that doesnt help by much. Maybe an Ωhm test even though all Renix SU's are 0-88. Maybe I could plug them in and see which ones will read past full and at full.

Will do, I will got take a look for it.
