You could also grind or file down the sides of the bolt head to get a wrench or over it and torque it out that way. That gives you two ways to un/install those bolts, in case you strip the Torx head... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If/when you do LED brake/tail lights on your TJ, you will need to also replace your flasher relay with one compatible with the low amperage LED bulbs for about $20. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Perhaps change both Idle Air Control Valve & vacuum solenoid? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I figured, having done nearly everything wrong the first time, myself (in the parking lot of an O’Reilly’s, no less!), I thought someone else might benefit from my experience. Let me know how it goes! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Two things: 1: Your blower motor may need to be replaced. Or 2: Your system has an electrical failure. Try locating the relay for your HVAC, and swap it with a relay from a system on your TJ that has the same number and you know works. If you still have the problem, it is most likely your...

I had this issue as well. Your pressure regulator is sitting on top of your fuel pump, which is located on top of (sitting inside of) your gas tank. You will need to take out the screws at the front of the gas tank cradle (only), and let the hinge carry the assembly down. Best to do this with...

What price is being asked for it? I’d also ask if you can take it for a test drive. Pick a spot with hills and ask if you can test out the 4LO-4HI transition and see if there is any noise. Post a pic of the rear window- you may be missing a bracket at the bottom of the rear window. 9/10 times...

My wife’s Jeep was doing the same thing, but the TPS didn’t fix it. So far, it has new plugs, new IAC valve, new Crank sensor, freshly cleaned throttle assembly and air intake, and still bucks and idles high around 1250-1500 rpm. Anybody have any other ideas? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This is a warranty recall issue. We found out when we took the wife's Jeep in to have a similar issue addressed. They cleaned up, installed a heat shield, and we went on our way. Apparently, there was something in the mfg if these that led to a vulnerability in cylinder 3, which allowed debris...

Check your purge valve (idle air control). It seems your symptoms are similar to the ones I had. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I emptied out my radiator, did a flush. Ran water through it, then refilled with full strength AF. I think it unclogged my heater core and something else in my system, b/c now it idles around 210 with no fluctuations, and the A/C blows cold again... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I am having a new problem that my temperature spikes, seemingly at random. High speed and high gears, low speed and low gears, and at idle. Temp will shoot to 260, and stay there. Then, also seemingly at random, it will drop to 225, and either stay there, spike back up after a minute, or drop to...
