    Jeep won't start- In need of help

    Well, my husband and a friend towed the Jeep home the other day and while they were towing it they tried to pop the clutch and the tires just froze and left black marks. So I guess that is that. I would love to put another motor in it, but we have like no money and I think the cheapest motor my...

When we went to go and pick it up from where the Jeep had died on my husband the guy there tried to help us get it started and he put this huge battery charger on it with a jumper pack.

This time we sent away for a rebuilt one with a life time warranty. I hope that is the last we will have to deal with that. Now today we have a new problem. It...

    Jeep won't start- In need of help

    We have driven the Jeep much more than 80 times since replacing the ECM. Also when the mechanic put the computer on the Jeep and they installed a new stator and flipped the crank position sensor around the right way, he wiped the codes and they immediately came right back. I don't remember all...

    Jeep won't start- In need of help

    Thank you everyone for the advice. i will tell my husband. How do we test the fuel pressure? Is this something we can do ourselves? Would a bad fuel pump make it backfire? It backfired so bad the other day it blew a huge hole in the muffler and sounded like a bomb. Between that happening at...

    Jeep won't start- In need of help

    Ok, well we figured out why it wouldn't start. Is everyone ready for a laugh? He put the sensor on upside down. Now it starts, but we are still having problems.

    This may be long and I apologize in advance. I have a 1995 Jeep Wrangler 2.5L, standard. This summer we replaced the ECM with a used one. We also replaced the distributor cap and rotor, coil, spark plugs, and fuel pump relay. It ran fine until it got cold. The check engine still comes on when we...
