    06 TJ WITH OIL PRESSURE GAGE THAT FALLS TO ZERO WHILE At IDLE

    My 01 TJ would drop oil pressure to zero at an idle until I changed the thermostat to a cooler temp, 185 or 190 if I remember correctly. Oil pressure runs good now and still plenty of heat. Sent from my SM-S327VL using Tapatalk

    4.0L Multiple Cylinder misfire

    Just some advice with a misfire... If it is misfiring real bad and causing your rig to run terrible don't let it go like that too long. My Jeep went a couple months running like that off and on and eventually I fixed the misfire but the cat failed a few months after all that fuel getting pumped...

    On board air help !!

    I converted my OE A/C pump a year ago and used an old fire extinguisher for a tank. A small home built panel with an auto shut off at 120 PSI and a switch in the dash to put power to the clutch circuit and it works real good. I kept the high point of the original AC aluminum intake pipe and...

    jeep tj rear upper shock mount bolt head gone

    It is likely that is hardened hardwear, if you can heat the hell out of it and drive it out with a BFH it should come out. If you need to drill then you may need a carbide bit which is pricey. Good luck rusty bolts can really suck! if you replce it use a hardened bolt or you may break it while...

    What Winch To Buy ?

    The Smitty-Bilt XRC 8000 is what I use. Use for the occasional self rescue and a bit of cordwood recovery as well. Not the fastest but not the most expensive either. I got free shipping when I bought it too. An 8000lb winch should be more than sufficient to get you out of a jamb and better with...

    the lack of fwy speed

    I think if you take a moment to appreciate the ability your Jeep has off road it will be easier to forgive it for not performing on the freeway.

    what is this?

    That is a vent line. It should have a breather on the "dead" end and it should go up to keep water out of your diff.

    October SNOW? 2 FEET

    Here is the first time ever I have seen October snow in Troy, NH that stuck! I've lived here for 36 years. This is definetly too early. It also makes hunting season a little tough.

    What is your daily car?

    I traded my pickup last spring for my TJ. It's all I have. My wife drives a Ford Explorer and we use that on longer trips, but any time she has to run a quick errand I find her sneaking out of the driveway in my Jeep. LOL. Kids love cruising in the Jeep too. I think when my wife stops sitting...

    To wave or or not to wave.

    Always get a wave from CJ's, YJ's, & TJ's but only about 30% maybe from JK's. Seems to be a lot more "Higher Class" folks driving Jeeps that just will never get it. I'll always wave, fellow Jeepers are fellow Jeepers. ( unless I'm messin with my radio and miss you then I apologize) Sent from my...

    New headlights.

    I've been doing a lot of reading about the headlight upgrades and think I would like to get a set. Are they going to produce as much light as a couple off road lights mounted up on the windsheild posts? If I can get away with it I will just do headlight upgrades for now but I don't want to skimp...

    Winch

    I just mounted a Smittybilt XRC8 and it works real good, I did pick up a snatch block though if you have a tough pull in sticky mud it can save the winch motor. Catch it at the right time and you can score free shipping too!

    check engine light

    They will have a pending code for a bit giving the sensor a chance to correct it's values back to normal. If the ECM keeps getting the errant signal from your sensor it should eventually turn the CEL on. Mine took about 60 miles to recognize and trigger a light. Sent from my iPod touch using Jeepz
