    4.0 only runs for a couple seconds

    If you can jump the fuel pump relay and get the pump to run, then that may indicate the signal wire for that relay may not be working to energize the relay. Will the engine run if you jump the relay and try starting it? I believe the relay signal comes from the ECU. The ECU initially sends...

    This is what I ordered from Amazon. Ignition plus three locks with two keys. All keyed the same. A locksmith will charge a lot more to rekey everything. I just ordered the linkage from dead jeeps

    Actuator Rod to Ignition Switch

    The key switch or the electric switch down on the steering column? The switch on the steering column has two different versions depending if it's for a tilt wheel or fixed column. They're mirror images of each other.

    95 YJ - No signal to speedo or tach

    Ugh, that's a tough one. Strange that both are affected. I'm sure you did a Google search, they say fuse #7 should be checked and A I days the VSS can be rotated to find a sweet spot to get the best signal. That requires running it in gear while on jack stands.
