reprod89 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 go out to start my red jeep keep cranking it no start. check for fuel, spark and compression. have fuel, spark is weak, and low compression 1 ,2,3.having the coil and ICM check out tomarrow, but beside that what could be my issue? :hmm: 125K on the moter.
TheDirtyJeep401 Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Plug wires and distributer cap possibly part of it. don't know about the low compression maybe piston rings.
Geonovast Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 How's the spark directly from the coil?Might be a good idea to replace the main ground strap from the back of the head to the firewall.
reprod89 Posted May 1, 2013 Author Posted May 1, 2013 solved one issue ICM is bad coil is good have it by tomorrow cleaned off the ground wire don't see any bad spots cleaned off the distributor cap. check all the plugs and wires no faults useing a dummy light tester and battery to see if theirs any other issues
reprod89 Posted May 2, 2013 Author Posted May 2, 2013 IT lives to ride again. ICM was the trouble maker. after a 7sec. crank I herd a hint of life put the petal to the floor and tried again and she rev up. best sound you can hear is the symphony of the 2.5 run like a champ.Now it time for a victory beer :rock on: :thumbsup:
