What's up ladies and gents,
I hope I'm posting this is the right section.


So my 93 Jeep Cherokee Country has been sitting for about 2 years while I was over seas.


Really I'm here for an suggestions, comments, and help as to what all I should do.


I drained all the old gas, and threw in about 2 gallons of new, and replaced the battery and she started up after a few tries. Everything sounded good, just some faint smoke (white), my guess is it's burning stuff that has been sitting on the engine, or from cruddy oil.


Tomorrow I'm flushing ALL fluids for new.


Any other tasks anyone would recommend?

Don't forget a splash more gas before going crusin' in your "new to u again" '93. Overseas in the military?....if so, thanks for your service.

I can see myself getting so excited to get her back on the road I would forget the gas =P.
And yessir, Army, and it's my pleasure.

So, I've got on update on my Jeep, and I'm in need of assistance.


I am, by no means a mechanic, although I've done all the work to this Jeep, Youtube has been a great friend of mine, lol.


Anyhow, I changed the oil and flushed the radiator today, when the Jeep is in idle, a steady, light smoke continues to come out (white).


The Jeep overheat, I have the coolant level isn't decreasing and when I open up the radiator while the Jeep is on, I see no Coolant flushing around, also I feel no water from the water pump going to the engine when I squeeze down on the hose. The area has also began turning brown as if it's been burnt.


Here are some pics.

It's fairly easy to determine if your head gasket is bad or the head is cracked *steam out tailpipe*.


Go pick up one of these.
