connor.grogan Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I am looking at an 88 Comanche long bed 4x4 with the 4.0 later this week. Seller says there is death wobble around 50 and it runs rough when the engine is cold. I currently have a 2000 XJ (which I may be trading for the mj) so I know about the death wobble. But I wanted to know if there was any common issues with the older models and engines compared with the newer. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 If the owner hasn't ever done Cruisers Renix tune up tips, then chances are it probably could have some electrical issues. But common issues all across the board regardless of Renix engine is grounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely seem like more work than the newer engines. I haven’t seen it yet and I can’t tell what tear axle it has, hoping it’s not a 35.

Pete M Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 it's not only for Renix. some of Cruiser's tips apply to all MJs (extra grounds for the blower motor and fuel pump for example). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
