Hello, all, I guess I have TJ again. My daughter's 1997 TJ broke down (another thread) and it's mine now. She has another car for college. I just have to get it running and drive it back to Arizona. It's showing all the symptoms of a bad ECM. I ordered one from O'Reillys that should...

Does anyone in the area have a suggestion as to where she should have it towed? I'll have to rent her a car to get back to Penn State. She was supposed to start school tomorrow but will have to miss the first day. Any suggestions would help otherwise it's just pot luck...

And I don't want my 20 year old daughter to do it either.

Yes, it did as far as I could tell. I stopped looking at 95. With that tight steering box, one twitch and its over. I don't drive that fast.

Well, I didn't know you had to do that on a Galaxy S10e. Perhaps the reading needs to be verified. I was thinking one of those engine tunes might have been used to remove the limiter. I have a banks automind that works good on my Silverado but not on a jeep. I would put the limiter back if...

I had a shop change the little plastic gear in the transmission so the speedo would match the GPS. It reads accurately to a phone GPS, but I know I've never taken the RPMs over 5000. It was always reading low before.

Hi, I just looked up this thread because I was wondering what the prior owner could have done to my daughter's jeep. So there is supposed to be a speed limiter? In the cold desert, as I was driving it back to Pennsylvania, it easily goes 100. My daughter admitted running up to 113 MPH (GPS...

You can add me now. My daughter and jeep are back for the summer. Turns out she been wheeling a little in PA.

The original link in my first post still works. Price has come down and it provides the Mopar part number.

All fixed now. Thanks for the thoughtful replies! Darrin, a great mobile welder here in Phoenix, traced it to a bad factory weld. A couple patches and its back to "like a sandstone" Chevy tough. I'm heading back to the desert tomorrow but I won't boor this forum with the outcome...

Hello All, I haven't posted in awhile after my daughter took my jeep (uh., her jeep) to Pennsylvania for college. Since I couldn't afford another right away I purchased a cheap 4wd S10 with the "ZR2 Off Road" package for $1400. It seemed nice. Some cleanup and its a good day driver, but...

Thanks guys! I will pick one of these. There is some chance it's the lower radiator hose (the only hose I didn't replace because it looked new). If she confirms that then I'll have to walk her through changing it herself, otherwise it goes to a shop, probably for a new radiator. Have a great...

Hello, my daughter's 1997 TJ just overheated today. It's loosing coolant. I just changed the hoses and heater core a month ago and the radiator seemed pretty new. I can't help her since I'm in back in Arizona. We just drove it from Arizona to PA via Florida so she could resume her studies...

Let us know which one you picked. I'm hunting for one myself and don't want to get in your way. I live here so I can shop.

1920 ish something. It could be mine. I would have to figure out how to drag it out over 50 miles of desert trails..

Wow. I want it but can't come up with that much right now.

Hello, I was thinking this looks pretty good. One owner and rarely rust in AZ. https://offerup.com/item/detail/915379625/

Crab Island, Destin Florida

Yesterday I turned over the keys. It ran great all the way from Arizona to Pennsylvania via Florida. No fluid leaks or anything else I could find. This was my practice TJ. It now lives in the rust belt with as much Eastwood and fluid film as I could spray. Now the search begins for my desert...

Put the Keystone hardtop back on and drove 978 miles to San Antonio, Texas. This is the first leg of our journey. Tomorrow we will be in Louisiana and then Fort Walton Beach, Florida. Then a four day stopover and on to Pennsylvania. The jeep is running great thanks to seven months of good...
