    Fuel gauge sporadic

    I’ve been curious if an additive might work. For the price of lunch, I may give it a whirl. Thanks for the reply and suggestion.

    Fuel gauge sporadic

    10-4! That was my fear. 😂 I may set my OCD aside and just live with it. Thanks for the reply.

    Fuel gauge sporadic

    1998 TJ 4.0 Automatic When my gauge gets between 1/2 and 1/4, it jumps to the red and the light comes on. After driving it a couple more times it will jump back up to around 1/4 and seems to be accurate at that point until truly empty. I can set my trip meter but it drives me insane. Any...

    Process of elimination

    Help! My 1998 TJ is overheating (only at idle). Takes a few minutes after sitting at a drive through, traffic jam, etc. Cools down as soon as I’m moving again. I was convinced it was the fan clutch. Replaced it, same problem. Then I changed the thermostat, same problem. I’ve seen post saying...

    Brake help

    ‘98 TJ. Occasionally, while attempting to stop for a red light, stop sign, etc, my brake pedal will start pulsating, Jeep pulls left, and I have to be careful not to hit who is in front of me because it won’t stop. Previous owner said that a parts house and a jeep dealer said it is the abs...

    Sporadic brake issue

    1998 TJ. At times, sporadically, the brakes suddenly act weird. When coming to a stop, stop sign, coming up behind someone, etc, the brakes will start pulsating, pulling left, and not wanting to stop but eventually will. The previous owner had a parts house and a jeep dealer run diagnostics...

    WTB: Factory side steps

    I bought a very clean/nice ‘98 TJ. It has the OEM black plastic side steps on it. I like the look of them but the driver’s side is cracked about 3” on the outer edge right where i step. Anyone have a left side without a right side or even a good whole set they want to part with? I’ve been unable...

    Trouble removing key when shifter is in park

    My 98 TJ shifter shifts perfectly. However, when I go to park, the key won’t turn all the way back so I can pull it out unless I pop the shifter button aggressively a time or two or go to drive and back to park, either way works but it seems to be more the button on the handle. I thought it...

    Super tech gear oil

    Does anyone know if Super Tech 80w 90 gear oil is ok for limited slip differential? It is “GL5” but doesn’t say anywhere on the bottle or the internet (that I can find) that it is ok for limited slip. Thanks!

    Door handle issues

    Ok, I am at wits end! A couple of weeks ago, when entering the driver door of my ‘98 TJ, it snapped in my hand. Turns out, it was the short small lever (in the door panel) that triggers the handle to trigger the latch/stricker. One had jumped past the other. I was able to go in and put it back...

    Door handle recommendations

    I’m about to replace exterior and interior door handles on my 1998 Tj. I’m looking on the Quadratec website. Is there a quality difference in the Quadratec Vs Crown? Thanks!!
