Your local auto parts store should have one to borrow for a refundable deposit. Hook that puppy to the schrader valve and see if you have fuel pressure cranking. If not, try pinching the return line (protect the line with a rag so whatever you use to close it off doesn't damage it). See if it...

Do you have a fuel pressure tester?

Finally got time this afternoon to do the finalization of the repair since the sun had warmed my shop nicely. I used the Simpson TP35 plates. Folded them in half the 3" way and placed one on each side. I could have probably went with the larger tie plates, but that is what I grabbed and they...

I glanced over that thread a while back. Mine is warped, so I'll probably run the fuel on down in the tank before doing this. Any known issues of the metal or coating reacting negatively to the gasoline?

Finally got to it today. Went to drop tank. No dice. The rear skid bolts were seized/spinning and I was not about to fight them. So, knowing I have 1" body lift mounts freshly installed, I decided to gamble with my life and use a dremel and do the access panel cut. Killed my dremel (it was 10...

Well, there is a reason many hate the Dana 35 and swap it out. From what I've read the early 5 speeds weren't that great either. I'd have to see dyno numbers on a rebuilt 4.2 with just a cam and exhaust given that it takes a pretty hot stroker to make that kind of power and stock they were...

Welp, definitely will have to drop the tank to make sure of what I have before ordering the pump (if it does come to that). Thanks!

Dang, do you have a hot stroker or modern swap under the hood? The gen 3 LS in my Grand Wag is rated about that.

I seen that write up. I just don't want to spend another $50 for the frame rail hard line as I just verified mine are decent. Just a tiny bit of very light external corrosion. Those rubber front lines are REALLY bad. It's a wonder they haven't already caused an issue. 😲 I'm thinking new AN...

Exactly what I'm being led to as well. That said, when doing the test for the regulator, I noted those engine side rubber line sections on the frame side are in sad shape. They could be collapsing internally. Either way, they need addressing now regardless. They will fail sooner than later. Did...

Nothing aftermarket on my end. The PO mentioned he had the sending unit replaced within the previous year of me purchasing it, so it may be a cheapy parts store job. I did watch a Jeep Solid channel video on YT that showed some tips. Dale is excellent on explaining all things YJ and 4.0. He...

Kind of where I'm at. Could also potentially be a split pickup tube. Just wanted to poll the audience. So, no way to test regulator without just throwing a part at it?

Okay peeps. First issue I've had with my YJ. Driving to work a couple of days ago. Came to stop at the end of my road. Just as i did, the engine shut off. WTF? Tried restarting. It cranks. Like on the edge of starting, but won't. Fuel gauge shows 1/4 tank and has historically been very accurate...

That is awesome news! I know after I did that mod for the original motor in the Wag, date nights with the wife went a lot smoother. :LOL:

This. These statements right here. I've heard from so many mechanics as to why they did it the way they wanted to, when I requested something totally different. Too many times, I've been very dissatisfied by the rush job style repair once I got my ride back. This is exactly why I do my own...

Okay, you definitely want the strainer. I just drilled a small hole in the top of the factory sending unit plate (make sure nothing important is on the other side) and used a rubber wire grommet just big enough for the 2 wires to slip through. Do not just wrap the wiring. This is automotive...

The last I've seen, they were unobtanium as far as finding them in a kit. If you know the manufacturer of the upper doors, you could try to reach out to them. Otherwise, you're gonna have to most likely find a company that specializes in weatherstrip and use the old pieces to match up to...

Here's some reading for you. http://gleebledorf.com/ I used it on getting the CEC system on the Eagle functioning (semi) correctly. Still needs an O2 sensor, but it runs way better now. It should show some wiring concerning how it is tied in. Pretty sure it requires what is called the 'nutter...

Both the Rubitrek and AT51s are the 235 tire size on my Wagoneer. The AT51s are LTs with a load rating of 1900 pounds. They are no longer available and have been replaced by AT52s. The Falkens (I used to replace the AT51s a few months ago) are listed as 235/75/15T. They have a load rating of...

I second the 30x9.5 tire choice as a perfect cruiser tire. IMO, they look great with a stock 15x7 or 15x8 Jeep wheel of your choice. I DO NOT recommend the General Grabbers. They came with the Jeep and are new, so they're staying. No issues as far as handling and grip, but they are kinda noisy...
