A '97 XJ

[Gjeep]

Drive it a couple times a week. My 01 XJ is the daily driver.

Isn't this for one of your daughters? Must be close to driving age.

Hell no. They'll be getting the 01 XJ or an MJ... Sold my SnugTop camper shell to a local guy with a 130K renix era MJ Eliminator 5-speed 2WD. Really clean. He's in the army and it's looking like in the upcoming year he'll be going overseas and will need to sell the Jeep. Wants to sell it to Jeeper as he bought it from the original owner. Good chance the daughter will be getting that.

Just about done with the '97 XJ... Only thing I'm waiting on is the recovered sun visors.

 

 

 

 

better than new!

Success!!  Figured out the idle issue/ CEL...

 

It was a combination of things. 4-5 lbs lacking in fuel pressure (causing the initial cylinder 5 & 6 misfire issue)... Replaced sender/ pump in tank with new Bosch -- now proper fuel pressure (but sender isn't sending... doesn't read anything on gauge -- need to swap to yet another new unit).

 

Also found a damaged fuel injector female connector. It was only touching on 2 of the 4 sides. Bent it back into shape and drove the Jeep hard. No issues. Runs as it should.

 

I'll be replacing that bent fuel injector connector with a new one and once again will be dropping the tank to replace the POS pump assembly tomorrow morning.
