    Help! Front seal stuck

    Help! This front seal is not coming out! The one right behind harmonic balancer, crank pulley. We tried everything, seal puller, putting screws in, they just slip out and tear up inside of seal, sprayed it with pb blaster. It is getting so buggered up. Any ideas would be great!

    Doing a water pump and iust took off serpentine belt, and noticed the idler pulley and tensioner pulley have nicks that I can feel with fingernail. Had no other issues prior. I think they spin ok, the idler pulley has some give when it spins and the tensioner spins fast. Is that how they are...

    Where does temperature fall on your gauge?

    2005 lj. Curious where the reading is on your gauge on the dash when it is at optimum temperature? I'm sure I will be told to buy a gauge for a more accurate reading, but I don't have one yet and am curious where it should be. Mine is between the half and 3/4 mark, closer to 3/4. Thank you

    Coolant dripping

    Hi. 2005 LJ 90,000 miles. Noticed a steady drip, it is radiator fluid coming from behind the very bottom pulley, from what looks has the oil pan behind that area. Drip is wet, like water, not oily. Starting from top, working my way down, I felt to see if it was wet, not wet anywhere but that...

    Name this tube (when tube is off Jeep wants to stall)

    That is what I was wondering and hoping. I will buy some new vacuum tubing if I can't find the exact rubber elbow tube. And, let it run like you suggested. And cross my fingers. Any thoughts on how long it will take to (relearn)? Is sitting idle enough or will driving be better? (country roads)

    Name this tube (when tube is off Jeep wants to stall)

    The green tie tube goes right below on the nipple with the pencil. And it is a long grey wire that goes to passenger side of jeep down below the battery and connects to what seems right onto the inside body of jeep. Now that you can see the photo do you still feel the tube/line is the vacuum...
