ComancheKid45 Posted July 15, 2012 Author Posted July 15, 2012 Came across a good deal on some Bosch 4 hole Injectors....so what the heck, i decided to toss them in. The 25 yr old injectors were showing their age All back together and I noticed a noticable difference!
ComancheKid45 Posted July 29, 2012 Author Posted July 29, 2012 Well i deciced to get alittle clever with 1 of my decals today. Ha Ha i thought it was pretty funny. :yes: Truck has been running great since the injector swap....Lovin it!
Dadinator Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 What did you get the injectors from and how much did they run ya?
ComancheKid45 Posted July 29, 2012 Author Posted July 29, 2012 Theres a fella on ebay that sells reman. injectors. here's a link to 1 of the auctions for another set for a 4.0 :thumbsup: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fuel-Injectors- ... 6rk%3D3%26
ComancheKid45 Posted October 28, 2012 Author Posted October 28, 2012 Picked up a Booster/Mst cylinder off a wrecked 00 XJ for FREE! Besides alittle fighting with the brake light switch it swapped in pretty painless. Have this mod on my Blue truck as well and it makes a HUGE difference in performance! Highly recommended even on stock 2wd MJs.
ComancheKid45 Posted December 14, 2012 Author Posted December 14, 2012 Well its taken the better part of 9 months but i finally cured the slight missing and stumble issue with this truck. A bad spark plug (that was installed shortly after purchase) has been the culprit the whole time! 6 fresh Champion Copper RC9YC plugs and this baby runs the best it ever has under my ownership! I'm thrilled to finally have gotten to the bottom of this issue! More happy days ahead on the road for Oscar! :thumbsup:
ComancheKid45 Posted December 18, 2012 Author Posted December 18, 2012 Thanks. Its an orgional for sure, haha
ComancheKid45 Posted December 19, 2012 Author Posted December 19, 2012 Well looks like the fuel pump has took a dump in ole Oscar.....Ill thrrow a spare in sometime shortly. I guess the smooth running of the engine was too much for it, lol
ComancheKid45 Posted December 21, 2012 Author Posted December 21, 2012 Sorry for the lack of photos but there really be nothing enxciting to see. Ha Ha, Anyway the truck is back up and running after a fuel pump swap, i also noticed the feed line between the pump and the sending unit had all but come off of its connection, that likely was hurting the performance as well. O Well all is good now and back to running strong!
ComancheKid45 Posted January 12, 2013 Author Posted January 12, 2013 Its been alittle while since Oscar had a photo taken, so i figured what the heck. Its still runnin strong as ever!
ComancheKid45 Posted March 14, 2013 Author Posted March 14, 2013 My Little Dumpster turned over 180k miles today.
Wrz Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 That paint came out really good for roll on, will keep that on the back burner for when I'm at that stage, did you clear coat over it?
ComancheKid45 Posted March 15, 2013 Author Posted March 15, 2013 Nope, no clear coat applied. Just prepped (mostly scuffed) taped off the edges and rolled er on. Very easy process and is easly do able in any garage or outside if weather permits. Also its no more expensive (if not cheaper) than an aresol spray bomb job and is much more durable! After about a year the paint has held up fantastic, havent noticed any major fading or chipping anywhere, even after being up aginst a tree @ 1 point. For a durable and cost effiiciant paint job, ill reccommend a Roller and brushes everytime!

ComancheKid45 Posted March 15, 2013 Author Posted March 15, 2013 1 gallon will be oodles. I usually use about 2/3 gallon total applying 3 coats.
ComancheKid45 Posted July 1, 2013 Author Posted July 1, 2013 Well i knew the situation wasnt gonna get any better on the passengers floor board so i decided to tackle that this afternoon. Ive been fighting a water leak with this truck during hard rains, and all the matting and such under the rubber floor was soaked! :ack: Luckly i was suprised there wasnt much bad rot at all, a small hole i had to patch, I then cleaned it up a bit and hit it with a coat of hammered paint . That should hold it over for a good while ;)
ComancheKid45 Posted July 16, 2013 Author Posted July 16, 2013 Dumpster doing work......Takin out the trash!, lol. Also got a new axle bearing/seal installed on the Right Rear, no more loosing fluid and lots more road time for this fella!
ComancheKid45 Posted October 4, 2013 Author Posted October 4, 2013 Still not much to update in here. I will be putting a new set of tires on this truck likely before years end, otherwise its just doin what I bought it to do......DD the heck outta it ;)
Texas77 Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Yep.DD is what I'm aiming for. With maybe a little flair. It will be a couple of weeks before I get mine . It's a long bed but I think I'll bob it.4x2 long beds look goofy.
ComancheKid45 Posted October 26, 2013 Author Posted October 26, 2013 Haha personally I think bobed MJs look goofy in general
ComancheKid45 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Posted February 7, 2014 Giving Oscar some attention today with replacing the leaking valve cover gasket It was an adventure getting it into the garage, and itll likely be in there for a few days now, 2wd and almost 10" of snow/ice on the ground just doesnt work too well :rotfl2:
ComancheKid45 Posted March 22, 2014 Author Posted March 22, 2014 Finally got around to getting some newer tires on this truck, also hit the wheels with a quick coat of paint. All cleaned up :)
