    Should I rebuild my manual transmission or buy a remanufactured unit?

    OK...Just bought a AX-15 rebuild from an outfit out of Memphis Tn. Everything is cool so far, But...When it gets cold like down into the 40's, Mine requires a little extra effort getting into second from first no grinding, Just sticky...This could be a trait of the 15? But after that first shift...

    Help please.timing chain cover won't go back on

    Honestly not picking at you.....But the rule I stick to from experience is as follows, Auto Zone is only good for fluids, Filters etc. If you get into replacement parts/seals/gaskets for your engine and drive train, Pony up the extra and get them first from NAPA, And then and only if NAPA can't...

    95 4.0 fuel pump works (sort of)

    Confusing indeed....Can't wrap my mind around moving the fuel tank "Back"....To where?

    What does the condition of this spark plug tell me?

    Looks lean to me.....Could be altitude, High ethanol content, Does it have a carb? If so, Bigger jets with a rebuild....And I HIGHLY recommend using this in every tank of fuel for "Wetting" Up the fuel and giving upper cylinder lube....

    YJ runs fine for 10-20 miles, then hesitates, sputters, and stalls

Did you check/replace your fuel filter? Might have to go as far as pulling your tank and looking for trash...
