My '88, '89, & '90 have Emission Maintenance Timers that trigger at ~82500 miles indicating the O2 sensor requires changing, I'm not sure if '86 was the same. Here's where it's located (from the '90 FSM):

Here's a copy of the '88 electrical manual it's probably similar enough for the brake lights. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=12734&hilit=electrical+manual

Hope this helps, from the '90 FSM.

I like their use of the spare tire winch handle holes.

Nice, where is Lake View Cruiser from? Is World's Fastest Comanche complete? Did he make a run?

I know codes are NOT stored and they would still charge me for the diagnosis no matter what they used scanner or multimeter or ... Not necessarily. The pump stops running when the pressure in the fuel rail reaches the required pressure. If you try to start and get a fail to fire, walk away, then come back and try again before the pressure has bled down sufficiently, the fuel pump may not need to run ... so you won't hear it. Sorry, I thought it was implied to listen upon initial attempts after sitting when the key is turned to the Acc position (first click), hard to hear the pump prime while cranking. Thanks Joe, interesting read. Funny, Eagle posted on that thread also.

Actually it was for my '90 MJ, shows you how much the Service Manager knew. Yeah, that was in '94, I was naive back then, plus this site didn't exist (for that matter very few sites)!!! :rotfl2: What scan tool is used to connect to the 6 way (D1) and 15 way (D2) diagnostic connectors that are between the relays and the coolant bottle? I know codes are not stored, but I thought there were real-time outputs. And back to the original question, can you hear your fuel pump prime every time regardless if it starts or not? I had a loose harness connection by the e-brake causing intermittent fuel pump issues.

Now all it needs is an MJ bed around it.

Sounds like the CPS see below:

That's not a renix valve cover, Here are my three renix ones (90, 89, 88), the ribbing is different (see red circle above) and the bungs appear larger and more off set in yours. OOps, everyone beat me to it while I was taking the pics.

No one said you can only have one or the other. :jump:

I'm thinking pulled pork sandwiches with coleslaw and a spicy vinegar sauce :drool:

How do I remove the mirror from the housing? I already have the mirrors off the truck and I've removed the spring that attaches to the pin and two screws behind the mirror (I see other's I can't reach) but I can't figure out how to remove the mirror. The mirrors are XJ/MJ manual remote folding types. Thanks.

I like it. :thumbsup:

That line does go to the bi-metal temp sensor at the back of the stock air box. The line directly behind it goes to the EGR solenoid on the fender (right of your picture) which you can see is connected.

We are also very happy it wasn't your MJ. Sorry for your Subaru, at least no one was hurt.

I remember him from NAXJA years and years ago. Is he still in the Middle East?

I removed the rear rubber piece before I painted my truck and reinstalled it after painting. It was not urethaned in, just the glass is urethaned. This was in my '90 which I have owned since new so I know it had never been replaced.

Nice :thumbsup: , got any pics of the underside? I assume it's a functional cowl intake correct?

Currently 7.5 miles for the last 7 years Before that: 58 miles for 2 years 65 miles for 3 years :ack: this was the worst, not just distance but constant heavy, heavy traffic 52 miles for 4 years 28 miles for 2 years 57 miles for 3 years All one way in heavy San Francisco Bay Area commute traffic :fs1: But hang in there, at least they give you a car and a fuel subsidy.

Hi Joe, I purchased it in Auburn at a Jeep dealer. I was going up to Sacramento from Livermore and stopped at every Jeep dealer off 580/680/80 and didn't find any. When I got to Sacramento I checked the paper and found other Jeep delears off of East 80, went to a couple, and found this in Auburn. I had a choice of this one or a white 4x4 SWB. At the time I was a poor college graduate with school loans to repay, the extra $ for the 4x4, extra insurance cost and my lack of 4-wheeling didn't make that purchase feasible. I purchased it on the spot, with minimal experience driving a manual trans vehicle I figure what the heck and drove it home, my wife (then girlfriend) was with me and drove the other car home.

Well, it was 19 years ago today that I bought my first MJ. The blue 1990 Sportruck in the footer.

Maybe I should change my name to Chryslerslug87 now. :rotf:
