Reading some Amazon reviews one customer had this locking problem and said the locking rod needs to be unclipped and adjusted about 1/16 inch longer.

Fun, inexpensive (lol), easy to work on, really fun.

OK but do you hear the pump run momentarily when you first turn on the key? Does the engine run when you jumper the pump relay?

Do you hear the pump run for a few seconds when you turn the key on? You can put a jumper wire across the terminal connection where the relay plugs in to test the pump and wiring. If the pump is running and still no pressure then maybe the fuel filter is plugged.

I was fitting the outside door handle and found the handle part seems to be loose (floppy) with no spring to help keep the flap handle flat. There is a coil spring on one end but it's not attached to anything so it just rotates. Maybe it's broken. Looking at some youtube videos I see others...

Nothing special but today I had time to clean the door latch for the full doors I've been working on. The latch looked like a 32 year old chunk of coal with dried grease and dirt. Same goes for the window crank gear assembly. Now both work smooth and silk. Obligatory picture:

There is a modification some people have done to cut a square hole in the floor directly above the pump. DON'T cut it with the tank in place. It makes pulled the pump easy but I'd rather go through the struggle.

Probably everything you need can be found in the Recourses section of this forum... https://wrangleryjforum.com/forums/yj-resources.121/

Thanks, the speedometer, odometer and trip all work but I just couldn't reset the trip. I found a video about repairing the trip and it's pretty straight forward. After watching the video it brought back memories of removing the clear plastic face cover to clean it when I had the gauge...

Ha,well heck. Full tank of gas but now my trip odometer doesn't reset. Push the button and nothing. Worked for the last few years so I don't know what to say. I think it may be a sealed case so I can't get to the internal parts. On a positive note my new windshield wiper blades fit.

I'll check for leaks. The first front bolt/stud was snapped off on mine and had it fixed when the head was redone at the shop. Seems to be a common problem. Something else that different from the way the factory did business was the exhaust manifold went straight on the head with no...

Update, I think all is good for now regarding the fuel pressure, or good as it can get using older Harbor Freight fuel pressure test kit. I went on a short drive and with a warm engine the running fuel pressure was 32 psi with the vacuum attached and the pressure was 40 psi with the vacuum...

I'll keep updating this. The plugs, wires, cap, and throttle body are either new or cleaned about 1000 miles ago during a full engine rebuild. The only original items are the injectors, fuel pump and pressure regulator. Timing was checked ok but it's controlled by the ECP si there's nothing...

Thanks so, I'll see what I can find here. Yes the pressure range is 31 -39 depending on vacuum. Mine seems to be stuck at 31 with or without vacuum which might be OK. I'm going to fill the tank today and do a MPG test. I'll let you know what I find.

Where can I find a fuel pressure regulator with the proper 31 PSI control? Yesterday I had a stupidity problem with my 2.4L MPI losing power and going into what modern cars do which is Limp Mode - not a YJ feature but that's what it seemed like and as I pulled into the driveway I barely had...
