Sorry, I need to get used to posting my stuff again...

What do I bypass the ballast resistor with, a simple wire? Yes, jumper wire across the resistor terminals.

So I'm FINALLY back in the MJ game with an 88 4.0 5 speed. Whoo! So I revived it from 8 years of sitting just like my first one (6 years ago), and have replaced: fuel pump, filter & tank, spark plugs, wires, rotor & cap, cleaned each individual injector. Fuel pressure looked good and fluctuated normally while revving at idle, but the hood pinches the gauge hose so I can't drive with it :/ I've seen posts on similar issues but maybe I can get this one early! My exhaust manifold gasket is leaking, and I've unplugged lots of things to see if the issue goes away but it's always there. I'm suspicious of a fuel issue but have no idea what. I was gonna try a cheap junkyard icm and coil to possibly eliminate the possibility of it being ignition, but if yall have ideas then please let me know. I might clean those grounds near the dipstick too, those sound real important. Idk about them causing an issue like mine to where it only runs poorly at low rpm under heavy throttle then running fine in high rpm (it does idle a bit high) and I've sprayed starting fluid all over the intake with it running and nothing changes. I've cleaned the throttle body.....pretty good too. Anyone?

It doesn't fit my Rustler :(

Then just do it when the engine is cold.

Is it towards the front or rear of the engine compartment?

I felt like my MJ's turning radius sucked, your not the only one.

Leave other people's belongings alone and no one will have a reason to kill you. I figure it's as simple as that.

I guess all I can say is that really sucks that whoever you bought that rack from is sending you one brand new with rust all on it already, that's just ridiculous.

I had one inquiry on my MJ the first time I tried to sell it last time, about 2 months ago. The second time (about 2 weeks ago) I had about 5 inquiries and got a good trade on my KJ. It doesn't have half the cajones the MJ had or the bed but it's a solid little Jeep. I plan on owning at least one Jeep at all times the rest of my life.

Automan- who.......who ARE you??? :eek:

They don't have the one in Dumb And Dumber, don't forget that one!

Abe Lincoln freed all men, Sam Colt made all men equal.

I'd go with sandblasting, I've nearly been eaten by a wire brush multiple times trying to clean expanded metal which is why I don't do it anymore.
