Cool, the Neon injectors were installed by the PO, I'll see if I can find some 0280155702's and see if that stops the Pop Pop Pop, thanks for the insight!

I was able to get to this today. CPS is the non-high altitude version Injectors have a bunch of numbers, Side A: 0280155703 I think the first digit is a Zero, but I'm not 100% sure Side B: 5277739 I have another set of injectors on hand that I suspect are Chinese knock off Volvo injectors to try if the ones I have are incompatible. I bought them off Ebay or Amazon a few years ago, installed them and they didn't work, but I was having other issues at the time so I'm not counting them out if I need to swap in a different set of injectors.

I know you checked for vacuum leaks, but did you check that rubber block/vacuum hose octopus near the front of the engine? there is one hose that on my MJ was coming out a little bit and caused a high idle, maybe worth looing at.

Thanks for the input gang, looks like y'all have assigned me some tasks, 1. Pull injectors get part no 2. Pull CPS see if it's high altitude/adjust per Renix tips (there always seems to be something new and relevant there) Once I have these handled, I'll post up thanks again all

Thanks guys, cracked header seems likely, as for the CPS I am not sure if I got the high altitude one or not, I'll see if I can figure out which one it is since I replaced it a couple of years ago. and no REM here, cept on the stereo! It's always something!

Like the title says, whenever I decelerate, whether under load or coasting, I hear a popping sound coming from, I think, my exhaust. Let me say, this has been happening the whole time I've owned this Jeep and i though it had something to do with compression because it happens when I downshift and use the engine to break/slow the vehicle. BUT the other day, I was feeling to lazy to use my hand to shift down, so I pushed in the clutch and let off the gas and coasted around a corner, sure enough the popping began. I have two working theories; 1. The PO put in new injectors (4 holes)I wonder if the injectors are dumping to much gas into the engine at the lower speeds to burn it off, hence popping/backfiring in my exhaust? 2. The CPS isn't signaling the system about the reduction in speed so the ignition is dumping too much fuel. Do any of you have other ideas? Has this happened to you? I've done all the grounding, troubleshooting steps in Cruisers guide, and otherwise the engine runs like a top, I'd just like to iron out this wrinkle, thanks in advance!

How does the kicker sound? is there any rattling? if so does it matter ? I need a sub fo rmy setup, and an small amp as well, but haven't got around to it yet. That looks like a great place to put a sub, not much usable space there anyways, when I go camping/wheeling trips stuff just falls back there and gets lost, I'd rather plug the hole with some sond

This def says 1989 , nice work and yea, I'm sure it was a PITA to squeeze it in there!

That's a sound plan, avoid mucking with disc brake conversions, if possible, it's just another level of "custom" to content with. Post pics from the trip otherwise it didn't happen!

YES REMFLEX FOR THE WIN!!!!!! I second this tip, the last thing anyone ever wants to hear after this kind of work is "tic tic tic" from a manifold leak, leading to the last thing you'll ever want to do TWICE, replace that manifold gasket I use Remflex manifold gaskets exclusively, like Franks Hot Sauce, I put that *** on everything!!

A couple questions, Are you gonna be hammering down with this setup? What size tires do you expect to run? Any axle housing can be cut down to a specific width, and you can figure out what standard axle shaft lengths are that get you over all axle width where you want them. I went through 2 axle swaps on my Scrambler, Ford 9" (with two standard width axle shafts, 36" tires) and a Dana 60 (from a junk yard Ford 3/4 ton van 42" tires), that one had a custom width axle shaft that I had to get cut and splined. My advice is figure out what your end goal is, then build you axle plan from there and gather more info. Hope this helps

I think Master Blaster owns that rig, lol (Road Warrior reference for the uninitiated)

Yep this, I tried using a syphon tube (the kind with the ball bearing at the end, I don't like sipping gas, lol) and couldn't get the end past 12"-15" from the filler tube. From the sending unit side was easy

The end of 311 at Manashtash, it was a long day and a long bridge! Warning I was driving/filming so there's a bit o'the old Blair Witch camera effect going on!

I give too, but we donate to Bloodworks NW, maybe I can still join the club and earn points, I'm up to 3 gal so far woot!
