    4.0 intake manifold on 4.2 head?

    I'm trying to do a fuel injection and HEI distributor swap on a 4.2 on the cheap. I've had way too many issues with the stock ignition and Weber carb, just trying to run down the road. That's not gonna cut it when I go 4 wheeling. I'm wondering if anyone has swapped just the 4.0 intake manifold...

    YJ overheating and fueling issues

    Update: I have replaced the body bushings, and brought the body back down to stock height. I also replaced the rad with a Champ 3 row, and I replaced the fan shroud with a reproduction unit from Crown, and refilled the cooling system with all fresh coolant. I even added in 10oz of Hypercool...

But if I have to wait at a stoplight or heavy traffic for any amount of time, then the temp climbs right up, and is...

    YJ overheating and fueling issues

    Newly purchased 1990 YJ 4.2 with a Weber carb. The issue(s): Everything was fine when I did the test drive before buying it. On the way home the temp gauge slowly crept up all the way to just under the red mark and stayed there. When it got hot, it started sputtering and bucking like a bronco...
