Well now that I basicly finished all the paint/body/wiring/broken seat issues I decided to put a new clutch in, finished that no big problems, just the usual input shaft froze in the pilot shaft bushing, take an hour to pry the two apart deal......
But on to the test drive, clutch was great, ran ok till I got back home, sputtered and died. Wasnt able to resart it, shot carb cleaner in the carb fired up fine, ok so problem is no fuel, pull off fuel line leading to fuel pump, dry. Blow a little compressed air back down the line into the tank, tank pressurizes with air, squirts fuel back out the hose, brown muck.
Jeep sat for 4 years before I picked it up, first thing I did was drain the old gas out of it when I got it. Fuel line must have condensated and rusted, so I drop the tank drain and clean it, blow carb cleaner back and forth threw the fuel line with compressed air about 20 times till all the rust came out and blew clear.
OK with that out of the way even when the carb (carter bbd) had a good fuel flow it ran terrible, even after a rebuild. So now I am looking to put an MC2100 on it but the problem is I cannot register my CJ with out passing emissions, its an 83 and will be exempt after this test period but in CT you need to pass the sniff test in order to register it, I want to put a MC2100 on it but do not know if it will pass emissions. Anyone get one threw and how?
