    Misfire made worse

    I bought a fuel pump from dead jeep a while back and after a few months I needed to prime the pump to get her to start. Figured the regulator was going out. Dropped the tank and replaced the regulator only. Also changed spark plugs they were showing discoloration on one side and had some bluing...

    Low Oil Pressure

    When I cold start my tj it beeps and the check gauges light comes on. I took it in to a jeep shop to diagnose some other issues and was told that it is because my oil pressure is low. The gauge on the dash is slow to increase from a cold start. But as the car idles it always sits around 40psi...

    Steering box u-joint seems loose

    My steering is looser than I’d like. I thought maybe I’d need to replace the steering box. Crawled under today to see what it looks like. There is a lot of play in the u-joint that leads into the steering box. The one that is higher up doesn’t move like this one does. Does this need to be...

    Alignment Readout

    I did the steering upgrade earlier this year and tried to do my own alignment 😂 it could’ve been worse I guess. Finally took it in for a balance and alignment so I could get a readout. I have a 3” lift. What do I need to do to make my geometry better? Also they said I have excessive play in my...

    Is there a way to test my clock spring?

    My airbag light is coming on intermittently when driving straight and turning the wheel left. It beeps once and then turns back off after some time (it varies). My horn and cruise control work. It seems impossible now to find a clock spring for an 01 with cruise control. So is there anything...

    Unidentified Sensor/Connector

    Hello Collective Minds I was changing my crankshaft sensor today and found this connector/sensor that is not connected to anything. Any ideas what this would be? The only code I’m throwing for sensors is O2 and I just replaced it today as well.

    Fuel Injectors Diagnosis

    Ok so I am chasing a possible misfire/long crank situation. And I haven’t seen the condition of the fuel injectors. So took them out and need your wise minds to tell me what’s going on here. Obviously they’re dirty. Not OEM. Some cracks. Some looks burnt/discolored. What causes that? Is that...

    Question of the Day - Coolant Leak

    I’m back! I replaced my upper coolant hose to repair a leak a while back and everything was great for a few weeks. But doing some work and noticed that I have a new coolant leak.

    ZJ tie rod conversion question

    I bought the moog parts on Amazon for the conversion and I am having trouble where the drag link connects to the pitman arm. The bolt on the tie rod end goes into the pitman arm, but it is at the slightest angle and it won’t go all the way through. What do I need to adjust to make it work?

    Ball Joint Fit

    So I bought this ball joint kit: https://www.extremeterrain.com/jeep-wrangler-front-upper-and-lower-ball-joints-with-sway-bar-links-psa59722.html And the upper ball joint doesn’t look right. Am I doing something wrong or is this the incorrect part? The lower looks good and sits flush.
