1056449 thanks, concerning the 4X4 i checked around and there did not appear to be anyhting out of place. :-? It is really BS though I believe my 87 straight 6 is a 4.2 liter and i have read that replacing the rear main involves lifting the engine. . . :-P so, hopefully it is not that...

1056480 THanks, are all the hoses pictured running on the undercarriage?[addsig]

1056501 To add my 2 cents, the 4wd indicator on my dash is NOT going on. And now that I think about it, last time I successfully engaged the 4WD, I had a hard time disengaging it. . . in other words I pushed the stick it 2wheel and the 4WD dash indicator stayed on, and did not go off until...

1056503 Thanks on the leakage issue. I was finding oil in my air cleaner until i replaced the grommet, but i am not sure if i have the proper hose feading out of the grommet (and I know i am missing the elbow valve that comes out of the grommet). The PCV is also gummed up pretty good, i...

1056606 Thanks guys, I will let you know what happens.[addsig]

1060914 I am going to try this tomorrow--- i am a little unsure about how to hook up the ignition coil thoug-- it is a direct swap? [addsig]

1052007 Thanks for the input everybody. I dont know what kind of engine, just that it is a six. It stalls hot and cold. Sounds like the carter idle problem that I have been reading about. Therefore, I am going to try the venturi/clean solution suggested by beefy. I am going to do it...

1052628 So, i was unable to get the choke plate off. I did not have the right tool to loosen those two small nuts that hold the plate in place. So, while I could see the venturi cluster, I was not able to take it out and really clean it--- i sprayed some carb cleaner in there and that helped...

1052646 Thanks, that is it. . . the opening closest to the fire wall. I am going to call the dealer, what does "PCV" stand for? edited by: 1987BlackJeep, Jan 29, 2003 - 04:05 PM[addsig]

1052678 one more question, is this valve supposed to be open during normal operation of the jeep. In other words, when i replace the gasket, will there stil be an opening? It seems that the deteriroated gasket is a ring gasket, or looks like a donut-------- so even a new one will still...

1053965 I dont know, but i will check it out.[addsig]

1053970 I suppose when I look at it, I will understand what valve you are talking about. But, do you mean that you just removed it and that solved the problem? Or did you replace it with a valve that was not clogged?[addsig]

1051733 Hey, I am new to this board. I just bought a 1987 Jeep Laredo six cylinder. I have the above problem-stalling. I noticed a couple of how-to articles that seem to suggest a solution, but i am not sure what type of carb is one my jeep. Any comments would be appreciated--------- [addsig]

1053962 So my 87 YJ 4.0 straight six stutters under throttle some times on the highway (50-60 mph). Most often it happens when i am going up a hill in fifth gear, and have to down-shift to fourth and then to third to get back some power and to stop the hiccuping. Anybody have any ideas of...

1056442 (1) 4X4 I cannot get my '87 to go into 4 wheel drive (low or high) It was working fine, then the jeep sat for about a week while I was away and when i got back, no 4X4 Any ideas about the problem? (2) Oil LEak I have a slow oil leak, it seems to be coming from the engine, and I am...

1057860 So, I had written a few days ago about oil leaks. . . it appears that my PVC and hose swap helped a lot in that regard. But, when I pulled into work today, 30 miles from home, there was steam coming from the engine. . . i looked at there was a lot of liquid all over the front of the...

1057861 Anybody know a good jeep guy or gal in jersey?[addsig]

1060625 (1) Warning signs that gasket is blown? (milky oil perhaps) (2) Any "how-to" articles to change the gasket? And, is it difficult? I am going to be changing the valve cover gasket this weekend, and i think that the head may be blown too- so, i was thinking it would be best to do both...
