Guess it’s time to pillage dealers for JK shocks.

Hmm. You’ve checked just about every box for this problem. Course I’m curious about your sending unit, not that that is the issue. Check your TPS and make sure it’s voltage output is around 4.5-4.8(or 85% something like that) volts if I remember correctly from my TBI service manual(there’s a whole adjustment procedure, it is in Cruisers tips). Make sure the TPS is receiving 5 volts as well. You can also play with the TPS as the engine is running and see what it does. It should bog down as you push on the sensor’s lever as the engine is idle.

Hmm. Odd. But it doesn’t surprise me that I had issues.

No problem. It took me a while to hunt those codes down. The AMC one was found using the link that is posted and going under the AMC cars and not the Jeeps. I found the Chrysler code in an old book but can’t remember which book for the life of me at the moment.

Awesome. I really appreciate it!

Damn. The VIN is coming back as invalid.

Thank ya! I think that 2.5L has the AMC logo valve cover. Can’t confirm but the gold for that and the air cleaner is a different touch. I believe Minuit was looking for a 2.5L coolant bottle with cap. He still might be interested in that, but I know the cap and baffle are really rare

Color code for Colorado red: AMC is BE Chrysler is HE4 for the later years.

2.5L stuff needs to be saved. Can that license plate bracket on the front be grabbed for me? I’ll decode this one soon.

Oh god. I’ve only had the crate for a week now and these parts are just soaked and caked in gunk. I don't know what the owner had happen to everything but dang. I spent thirty minutes pressure washing the crap of the trans. I think it is an AX4. Won’t shift into fifth so it could not have a fifth. Every other gear is fine. AC bracketry and all the bolts and stuff took me a few days to soak and clean. Got fed up and pressure washed all those parts and hoses from the thirty years of crap. I swear my engine was not as gross as all these parts when I got Little Red. Now I just gotta look at the parts diagrams and figure out which bolt goes where. Scored a Renix CPS out of this. Cleaned it up and let it soaked in the mix I made with the other parts and installed it on a gamble and sure enough she fired right up. Awesome. Another original sensor. I still have to buy a good chunk of new stuff for the system. Probably will gamble on the original hoses. Here's what to expect to see; clean parts to be restored. New parts to be acquired. And within a month or so should come the install of everything under the hood. Ill post a bunch of before and after pics of everything that I have chosen to be cleaned and restored.

Not many people can say they own a first year run XJ. Get me the VIN and I’ll decode what it has.

Who would want to be affiliated with the people who bashed on Steve Irwin.

Um, Well, its tough to say. There's a sales code option for perforated leather, what ever that is. There is a leather and plastic option for steering wheels as well. As to whether Chrysler is using real leather or not, I can not say for certain. Probably pleather? A lot of the newer leather interiors don't really feel like cow leather if they have the leather option. My two cents.

No worries. I’ll get it decoded tonight. Thanks for getting back to it

Baffle is long gone but you don’t need it. I used a big 5 quart valvoline oil cap and it works great. I found a NOS one on eBay and bought it. There should be seven dealers left with them. Would you like me to PM you some numbers?

That full instrument cluster needs to be saved! That’s the blue faces!

Yea that is true. But this salvage yard has nothing but Jeeps as new as 2001. But not a lot but they have plenty of resourceful Renix era parts for me. Most still have the AC/heater box plenums. Sadly some moron that worked for them many years back tossed all the Renix engine harnesses. I think anyone would be happy to get rid of any part associated with the 2.8L

As soon as I saw this post I went to the salvage yard I frequent and snagged what I needed.

This style? Freshly restored.

I may have a selec-trac nameplate that I pulled from a Cherokee. Can get you a pic when I get home if it is the right style you are looking for.

No problem.

It is Renix. The dash harness didn’t drastically change till about 91
