    Fuel return line

    I see in your profile you have the 2.5L and switched from fuel injection to a carb. The fuel return line should connect to the fuel filter. At one end of the filter is the line from the fuel pump and the other end of the filter are two lines, one above the other. The top line is the return...

    Instrument panel ribbon

    I found the parts I needed from deadjeeps and ordered them a month ago. They took my money but the items haven't shipped yet. They said they need a few more employees to get the parts out. Others seem to have had good luck with them.

    95 Rear Axle Bearing Damage

    I'll say that pitting is definitely caused by the bearing overheating, most likely due to lack of lubrication. The surface got really hot causing microscopic particles to break away which gets progressively worse until you get what you see there. You can have both pitting and a build up of...

    95 Rear Axle Bearing Damage

    Turn it on a lathe to remove the damage, spray weld a layer to build it up, back to the lathe to make it the right size.

    Howell TBI conversion kit fuel pump won’t work

    What controls the pump with this conversion? The PCM or a new PCM? Newer injected YJ's have a safety feature that turns on the pump for 1 to 3 seconds to prime the injectors, then stops. Can you jump a fuel pump relay to get it to work?

    Motor bracket snapped

    Yeah I was shaking my head at those. One more thing when asking why it broke. Check the studs and threaded holes in the block which secure that mount to the block. I found on the bolts got loose on mine and ripped out the threads in the block. I drilled, tapped, and inserted a Heli-Coil for...

    Motor bracket snapped

    Check the front right motor mount bracket too. It's a thin stamped sheet metal riser that often breaks. This may have contributed to your part failure. I liked the construction of the Brown Dog replacement and welded up a similar one from scrap I had laying around. Much sturdier than the...

    Gauges

    The fuel gauge on the YJ will read full if it has power but the sensor wire from the tank is not connected. If it was grounded it would drop to zero. If you can get to the plug back by the fuel pump you can short out the black ground wire and the middle wire in the plug, I think it's brown...

    Clutch engaging too low

    I agree with you that by adding washers it may make it worse. An interesting issue I've read about is some aftermarket parts have a pushrod from the slave that is too short for the YJ AX-15. So a questions are - is it the correct length and not being pushed far enough, or, is it pushed as...
