Hi all, I'm prepping my now (finally) working Jeep for it's MOT and just need to do what I can to make sure the emissions are ok. It's running grey to dark grey moke at the moment. Probly cos it's been sitting for three months and not been driven at all. In my quest to rule out everything that...

Thanks Trex, haha Eric Idle....comedy gold.....thanks a lot, on the mend each day.

Hi all, just wanted to say a huge thanks to everyone who's chipped in since Jan to offer advice on my non starting Jeep. It started!! I'm not certain of the fix, but I bought a refurbed ECU and a brand new injector from the US. Then I fixed the TDC timing and adjusted the distributor and she...

It's a late 1988, single point injector, 4cyl manual.

Hi T rex, I'll keep the faith haha, not in the best health at the moment so my patience is a little worn out. Yeah, perfect match for the ECU. Yes that's right, The fuel is sitting under the butterfly of the throttle body- the brass looking flap directly under the injector. My fiancée noticed...

Thanks man, it's a bind. I had seizures out of nowhere. Knocked myself out three times, then smacked my head on my low garage door. Ended up in Neuro ward for 11 days with serious concussion. Had to surrender my license for 4 months until I'm well again. Figured I may as well prep the Jeep to...

After a brief stay in Hospital I'm back to try to fix my ruddy Jeep. New ECU is now firing the injector and fuel is entering the throttle body. But it's just sitting there in a pool under the valve. The Jeep cranks really well and I cleaned the sparks but it seems like the fuel is not going...

Welcome the world of YJ! I would absolutely follow redbullet's advice and if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I was a newbie here in the UK where older YJ s are very hard to fix, repair, test, find parts etc. I did the classic newbie error of 'that looks a bit dirty or old, I'll buy another...

Hi, I would start with your ECU. I just spent nearly three loooooooooong months with the same issue and replaced 10 items in the engine bay to try to figure out the busted bit. It was a fried ECU all along. I'm not saying thats your problem area, but it might save you a tonne of time starting...

Hi, anyone driven their jeep to Devils Tower, WY? I'd love to see some pics of your Jeeps near my favourite US location. Thanks Glen UK.

Hi all, is an XJ ECU/ECM compatible with a YJ? If it's the same year and engine? I'm having the devil's own job locating an ECU for my 2.5l 4cyl here in the UK. Zero luck. USA seems to be my option but they are super expensive. Just wondered if I have other options? Thank all!

Hi all, whilst on the continued hunt for my YJ not powering the injector I came across this connector hanging around under the battery. It's looking dirty so I assume it's not been connected to anything for a long while but it is connected by a wire to the Diag box by my battery. Any clues what...

Ah ok, I was in bright sunny conditions. Figured it was a bright flash! I'll try again in the dark tomorrow. Thanks for the pointer.

Hi, I've bought a noid light to test my Injector. Looked elsewhere on here for help but they are quite old posts so apologies for resurrecting. Plugged the noid in to the harness and cranked the Jeep, no light. I've read that light is good and no light is bad ? The ECU is sending a pulse to the...

Thanks, I'll do that this morning. Finally got a sunny day over here to do some work.

I don't know what a carb is but it's gotta be better than the quagmire that is under my hood!

Thanks Gila, Just checked them out. That's not bad even with shipping. Probably get the new one rather than send mine over for refurb. Just can't seem to get mine to spray the fuel. Pulse is there, noid is showing good power pulse etc, fuel is there, just won't let the fuel through, so I think...

Hi, can anyone tell me from the pictures if there is anything obviously wrong with my single point injector for my 2.5l 4cyl? Before I start hunting for a new one around the globe. ( It's getting power and ground from the ECU but not spraying at all despite having fuel at the inlet) Thanks all.

Yep, cranking the engine.
