    Manual transmission stuck in 4th

    Make sure your clutch is fully disengaging. Sometimes, if the clutch isn't properly adjusted, it can cause gear selection issues. The clutch is the first thing I'd suspect personally. Inspect the shifter linkage to see if it’s misaligned or damaged. If it’s not engaging or disengaging properly...

    I replaced the camshaft and lifters in my 89 4.2 and now my starter seems to be struggling to crank

    Given that you've recently replaced the camshaft and lifters and had to remove the starter, it's possible that the starter has been affected by the reassembly, but there are a couple of things to check before jumping to conclusions. 1. **Starter Installation**: Double-check that the starter is...

    Shift Rod Alignment: Make sure the shift rod is properly aligned with the shift gate. Sometimes, it helps to adjust the position of the shift gate slightly if the rod is binding. Check for Binding: Since you mentioned that it seems like the rod is binding, make sure there isn’t any debris or...

    Where is my O2 sensor?

    I can't tell you much about an export YJ as far as emissions go. Either your YJ didn't come with an O2 sensor (which is possible since it's an export) or someone removed it at some point in which case you'll find a harness for it somewhere if you look around.

    1993 Jeep YJ 2.5 AX-5 Transmission Plugs

    The "Do Not Remove" plug is typically a vent plug, and it should be left alone to prevent any contamination or issues down the line. However, if it has become loose on its own, it could be due to vibrations or thermal expansion/contraction of the metal components over time. It's good that you...

    There are a few things you can check before jumping to the conclusion that the shifter cable has snapped.

    Do I have a lift?

    Looks like maybe a 4-5" lift to me, especially with those tires. If your YJ has a lift, there are a few things you can check.

    Idler broke off on 95 YJ 4.0

    No clue how that could have happened but the fix is either having that piece welded back on or getting a new bracket (unless that's part of the block itself).

    Which automatic transmission should I put 1988 YJ?

    Why not go with an AX-15? Are you dead set on an auto? 32RH would probably be your best bet if you want an auto.
