    Can't recall but I think mine was around $600 and they planed it, new valves, springs, keepers and guides along with matching three angle grinds to the valve seat. Also new casting plugs. Before they did anything they did an Eddy-Current test looking for any cracks. No sense doing...

    Gas fumes in cab after pulling up or in heavy traffic

    No probable cause yet but I looked at the tank without dropping it and see stains when gas leaked from the top and blew back and down the sides while driving. There's no way to get a camera up to the top without lowering the tank.

    1994 4.0 manual YJ not going into gear

    Does it squeal all the time or only when shifting? I've had throwouts go bad and grind but they were a different kind with a carbon ring, not the ball bearing type and only made the noise when depressing the clutch. Bad synchros are somewhat common in 1st and 2nd gear. Reverse has no...

    Gas fumes in cab after pulling up or in heavy traffic

    Mine was covered with dry mud and all the lines were buried. They seemed OK but that's were I'll start. I don't have a body lift so trying to get a glimpse of what's on top of the tank without dropping it is nearly impossible. I wish I had a snake cam.

    Gas fumes in cab after pulling up or in heavy traffic

    Well heck. I've had my YJ for about two years now and kept it parked in the shop or garage and never smelled gas fumes until today. For several reasons I have not taken it out for about three weeks but within minutes of starting it today I smelled gas fumes from the back end area, not the...

    As for pads and shoes I think I went with something from the local auto parts store but I can't recall. But since you'll be in there I can recommend these two links for something to check for and help with installation 1) look for divots in the brake caliper from years of wear...

    Gas Cao? Maybe the fuel tank isn't venting and is drawing a vacuum.

    Gas fumes in cab after pulling up or in heavy traffic

    I didn't cut my access panel yet but I'd probably drop the tank to do it. Mu luck I'd cut into the tank, hoses or wires.

    What is the best way to adjust the fuel pressure regulator on a 2.5 TBI system?

    Is it running rich from pressure or is the O2 sensor off and ECU getting the wrong signal? I have MPI so I'm not familiar with the TBI system.

    Help with engine sounds and rattling

    That rattle at the last 1 second mark after shutdown does sound exhaust related or rear transmission mount related. How did they look during reassembly? Lower oil pressure can be a sign of bearing wear. How many miles are on the engine? Is there much change in pressure readings between...

    1990 Jeep Wrangler - 4WD Vacuum Line Question

    Yes those vacuum lines did go to the front axle disconnect vacuum motor in it's original form. Many owners have switched over to a solid axle, cable controller, or just locked that vacuum motor in the locked position. Or possibly it's all still there but the vacuum lines have become...

    Engine Rebuild Adventure - Advice Needed

    When I rebuilt my '92 2.5L I had a local machine shop order the master rebuild kit and do all the machine work and I too did the assembly. In my case the previous owner ran it out of oil so the bearing spun and made the same sound when running. During the inspection the shop found two...
