Need details on project Does it matter if I have the thermostat with the purge hole in it? Yes, I am replacing the valve cover gasket once I get the inside of the head cleaned. Also have to find something to go in the front breather hole in the valve cover. Nope, no remote.

Sea Foam... Just an update. Well there was no oil in air box and air filter neither Am in process of trying to get the valve cover off. Man that rear bolt is a pain. Also, what's this stuff about burping the air out of the cooling system? It has the closed system on it. Well got the valve...

Well used my 1988 on my daily run yesterday and it ran great. Not as peppy as the '96 but ran good. A little low on the heat output but have a new thermostat for that. One with the purge hole from the dealer. Will put it in tomorrow. Only other thing I have noticed is when I first start it up...

Hey all, I'm back and I guess I'm hooked on these Jeep things. Just bought a 1988 Cherokee Laredo today with 104,000 on the clock. Power everything and it all works. Couple quick questions about it. I had it running and went to take the oil fill cap off the valve cover to check for blow-by and...

Thanks Neal, I had the front drive shaft loose the other day and the u-joints in it were tight. Maybe an axle joint though.

Sorry, 1996 Cherokee with 4.0 and automatic 4WD. Stock wheels and have checked the lug nuts for just put 4 new rough tread tires on in Oct. Makes no other noises other than the small clunk when put in drive or reverse and only after giving it gas. Not when you put in gear. Makes no noises in...

I had to drive in about 4" of snow this morning on my daily run and ever so often would hear a small clunking noise coming from what sounded like the driver side front wheel. Only heard it while in 4WD. Would notice it when I would stop and back up or put in drive and pull out. Would do it one...

Steering Stabelizer for an SOA? Have since found out my Jeep has a '97 model engine from the factory in it as is why it is called a change over model. Went to get MAP sensor for it, got home and said, "huh", this don't look like mine, sure enough, it was for a '96 model, so I called the dealer...

I know I don't know anything, but would the cam postion sensor cause their problem?

Well I think I may have found the problem and I feel pretty stupid about it too. :roll: 2 words, bad gas. I have bought gas at the same place ever day since I have had it and today I got to thinking about the old days and how cars would run with bad gas in them and that is how my Jeep has been...

Update: I did the coil swap and went out and drove it for about an hour with no problems. On the way back I stopped and took off and crowded it quit a bit and it wanted to stumble again, but as soon as I let up on the gas and drove it normal, no problem. Just when I get on it heavy. Now what...

First off I want to thank XJNick for the invite here. Now on to my problem. I have a '96 Cherokee with the 4.0 and automatic. It has a 130,000 on the clock and I must say it runs well when it runs right. Here is the problem and what I have done so far to correct it. It is used ever day on a...
