comancheon33

I am thinking more along the lines of a plugged return line or something. I runs way rich. Hose to MAP might clogged also. Dunno I will be playin with it tonite. I will let you know what I find.

I was trolling around on a local radio stations want ads on Sunday evening. Stumbled across an listing and 89 Comanche for 400 bucks with no description and it was 6 days old. After thinking about for about an hour I decided to call him. He was an older guy that is very upset with the truck and wants it gone. He bought about 6-8 months ago and has had nothing but issues with it. He bought with mild damage to body and it would not run. Says it goes through about 2 gallons of gas per mile and will only run when floored. He had replaced the fuel pressure regulator and map sensor with no improvment. Told me on the phone 200 cash its yours I am going to buy something with a carb on it. F&%k this fuel injected stuff. Needless to say 5 o'clock at work today couldn't come soon enough. I headed his way which was about an hour from me. When I show up its a decent 2wd SWB Pioneer 4.0 auto with rust on the rear wheelwells and a little on the rockers. Gray with a burgandy interior bench seat and column shift with tilt. 149k on the ticker. Needless to say I can't say no to any comanche under 500. I bought so it makes number 6 comanche of mine in the yard. Planning on pulling in the shop tomorrow night and see what its gonna take to get it running right. If it goes will use it to replace my current work beater 89 2.5 4 speed. I will post up progress and pics in the next couple days.

Factory roll bars rock. I love mine for sure.

Trust I wasn't out for long the torch made quick work of it. The poor junk MJ got the box all cut up today. I took the rollbar out the easy way.

Looking good

Here are the pics as promised. I havent had to go get this thing till today. It just sitting in the back of my Eliminator.

Costs me 100 bucks to have an XJ driveshaft retubed to fitan MJ everytime. I have done this twice now. Both time the factory shaft was the rubber filled POS.

Bringing the rollbar home tomorrow afternoon. I will post up some pics.

If it had a factory alarm it would be flashing lights and honking the horn. If yours had a security system find the light green wire with an orange tracer coming form the security module and ground it. That will make the security think the key is in the drivers door lock. HTHs

Will I didint have enough light to get pics tonite after work. I went over and got the taillight, some of the interior stuff, and the carpet pulled out. I forgot my T55 to get the seatbelts so most of the interior is still in there. Oh well I will get tomorrow. Plus I am gonnatalk to the guy and see about maybe getting the rear driveshaft and fuel pump sending unit also. I prolly won't have time till Saturday after work to get the rollbar out. I only work till noon on Saturday. What a score I say. I swear I don't look for this stuff it comes to me. He also has an 86 XJ sitting there with a 2.8 auto 4x4 with 4.10s. I think I might buy the front axle out of it for another MJ I got on the way. He wants 400 for the whole XJ but enough parts there to sell and break even. Dunno see what tomorrow brings I am going to look at another 88 XJ for parts after work. I might get lucky you never know.

88 sportruck 79k 91 Eliminator 164k 89 beater 104k

Not yet I will have some up by the weekend.

Yeah that was a great score I think it will look awesome in my 91 Eliminator. So no at this point I don't wanna sell it.

I started a new job just before christmas as some of you may know. The shop I now work @ is right across the stret from where I haul in my stripped down XJs. Anyways Thursday I see an MJ go across the scale up side down in the back of a junk F250. I went over there today because they had unstacked them. It is a 91 4x4 SWB. Make a long story short I bought a bunch of parts off it. Left taillight, bucket seat brackets, gray interior stuff, fuel pump sending unit, factory AW$ 4x4 rear driveshaft and last but not least, A FACTORY SWB ROLLBAR. To make it even better it all dinged me $30 cash TOTAL. I love it. Now thats a good trip to the JY. What you all think?

2 inches is just a dusting around here.
