    Fuel vapor smell after shutdown

    Thanks for the reply. That smoke tester sounds like the best way forward. I'm in Michigan so my Jeep has rust for sure. Getting that liner out is going to be an adventure but necessary.

    Fuel vapor smell after shutdown

    1998 TJ Sport, 4.0L, Manual trans Hello, I've noticed I get a fuel vapor smell after turning off the engine on my TJ. It seems more pronounced if I've driven enough to get the engine warm.

    Rattle from bellhousing in neutral

    Source for motor mount and transmission mount

It's not a noise but a jerking feeling when I'm slipping the clutch starting from a stop. The issue is only present when I'm actively slipping the clutch...

    Air conditioning compressor always on

    That switch checked out OK. At this point I'm thinking it's a PCM issue. This is one of the famous auto trans Wranglers with that fault. I had bought a new manufactured pcm for it. I put the original pcm back in and ac works correctly. I have a call in to the manufacturer, pcm is still under...

    Thanks for the suggestion. Are you referring to the switch located on the dash where the driver selects climate control settings?

    Air conditioning compressor always on
