comanche12 Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Pulled the lock cylinder out of a 92 column I had to throw in the 2.5... jumped it, after a few minutes of cranking she fired up. Let it idle for about 45 seconds, sounded rough, and read 0 oil pressure on the gauge. :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: uh oh that doesnt sound good. any idea what is causing no oil pressure weak oilpump, excessive clearance of bearing/etc., faulty gauge, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lloyd Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 OK This wasn't today... but a few weeks ago a tore the crap out of my bumper which was a great excuse to make a new one :yes: what do you think?? Oh hell yeah! I need bumpers like that on both front and back. I'm a little rough on em I guess. :D Nice work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Worked on it, worked on it, and worked on it some more. After I finally got it to start for a moment, While I was contemplating the significance of crossing over the ballast resistor as to if I get the resistor replaced will I be back in running order or is there something else I need as well as the resistor. I took a flame decal from work and taped to the truck and fogged some white paint around the edges to see what it would look like. I plan on painting it later on so I practice with things on it now rather than when the paint will be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kastein Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 what's damaged on the driver side? If it's all bolt on sheet metal I would fix it up and keep driving it! just not quite so fast... :no: been there before but fortunately did not end up on my side, and mostly learned my lesson. Glad you and your passenger are safe. EDIT: looks like your inner fender walls may be boogered up pretty bad, could still repair it if you feel like junkyarding with a sawzall and doing some welding!

MjPioneer Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Took today off, unknowing to me that we apparently about to get this "Hurricane Earl" ......great...so I got "Hurricane fever" and decided my garage and my Xj and my Mj were going to survive this storm. Cleaned my garage and put the Xj inside (sadly it's the more valuable between the two :roll: ) Had to bust out the All weather car cover for the Mj, tied that puppy down and made sure that if by some freak of nature that it actually gets windy enough to toss objects around my tail lights won't get touched (...took them off the truck...come on there new and for I paid I can't afford to break them) Poor poor thing out there. I'm about 98% this storm won't be nearly as violent as they are predicting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kastein Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I would put the XJ outside and immediately get full insurance on it, and put the MJ inside! You can replace an XJ with money... Also if you need to park vehicles in the future there is a large abandoned parking lot within eyeshot of my apartment, none of the trees are tall enough to fall anywhere near where I park my jeeps and no one bugs em sitting there. I'm pretty sure this storm is going to be tame compared to what's forecast, but if it isn't, guess I'll be driving the jeeps around hauling friends / people I see stranded.

Geonovast Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Swore at it. A lot. Edit: It paid off. After struggling with the dizzy retaining bolt, I was able to prime the pump with my drill up to 50 psi, and drive it to where it's supposed to be.
