I have been fighting with this 99 2.5 for two months now. Twice I have changed head gaskets and both times water is pouring out cylinder three exhaust. I have a brand new head and followed Factory Servicte Manual. Can you guys think of something that I might have missed that would that amount of...

For a few weekends now I have been working on new cylinder head with gasket after my 99 2.5 died a few months ago. Back then it sputtered out with white smoke. So I just had what I thought was such an easy repair with the help of the FSM on here. I get it all fine tuned and turn they key. It's...

I just put my new cylinder head on my 99 2,5. One of my rockers is not centered as good as I think it should be. Is there an adjustment ? Would you guys consider using high temp red gasket maker for intake manifold? Tomorrow I hope to hear this thing hum, but is there something I should be...

Two weeks ago I was giving my 2.5 motor a little extra gas to clear it out. It started cutting out with a bad cylinder, and smelled a bit. I quickly pulled over, and looked at my tailpipe pushing some white smoke. I just stripped the motor to the block. I was really surprised how easy this...

Last week my 2.5 T J started sputtering so I pulled over with a bad cylinder. I had white smoke out the back so I had it towed home with the thought of a head gasket. I just stripped the whole motor down with great ease. I can't believe how well it came apart, and how good everything looks. My...

Lately I have to move my key around to get the radio to work. This is while the Jeep is running. Also the key doesn't come back easily on it's own. Does it need a new lock cylinder, or is it the actuator thing on the column...

After hours of reading about bucking, and sluggishness I'm chainging the chain on my 2.5. I'm hearing a little sound up front. The wrench to the crankshaft produced no sound. I have already changed Throttle Position Sensor. If I run into trouble with a bolt not coming out do I heat the bolt, or...

I got these wheels with the jeep. They were pitted badly, and cloudy. I have seen a few Jeeps on here with them, and I'm hoping to get some center caps.

Finally got my computer synced with my phone. I got this 99 TJ a few months ago with blistering paint all over it. The whole inside was beat up as it was owned by a younger kid in the service that left in in the driveway with a bad top. Very little rust overall. I painted the dash; and got some...

After scouring the country for seats for my 99 TJ I got a set of Nomads from Northridge. All companies say they have them then after you buy them comes the problem. I will have to wait for at least a month for the drivers side adapter. I read on here that one guy said he bolted them to his...

I got a 99 TJ a few months ago that was very neglected. Good condition with little rust. It spent it's life here in Florida, but I was still surprised at the surface rust under it. No frame rust just around the brakes, and shocks. I wish I had pictures because I stripped it down, and painted it...
