Haha, I need to do new plugs, wires and a dizzy cap too. I'm just too cheap right now.

 

yeah i need new plugs and wires too. one day it will all get done.

 

oh boy...
looks like in-line fuel filter for XJ may become a hard to find item for a while.

 

Reminds me, I need to check my plugs and check what the dist looks like inside... I just got the jeep about 2 months ago, and havent checked the plugs yet, I will pull one from the front cylinder and see what it looks like..

 

What are you talking about? Ahah. I'm sure there are enough in stock around the country that you should be able to hunt one down. It might be chinese crap, but then again what isn't nowadays?

 

Huh!. I 'm cheap 24/7/365 . If I wasn't, then all I'd do - setup appointments and have no "fun" in life.

 

I am not cheep per se, just broke all the time lol. I swear I feel like I am spending all my money "restoring" the Jeep and will never get to the fun modding stuff.

 

Yeah, I still need to get un-cheap and get around to flushing my coolant system along with changing my transmission, transfercase, rear diff and brake fluids.

 

I have some of that done. Front diff done, trans fluid done (i cheated though and had a lube place do it for me)

still need to do the rear diff, xfer case, coolant, plugs, wires, dist cap, valve cover gasket, get the stupid locking lugs off there, oh yeah and actually get it inspected.

 

hah hah

speaking of the devil and where things are made, I looked at the NAPA's Gold filter as I was making shure which end is IN which is OUT ...and there's lable there: "Made In Israel". I haven't ever seen anything of that nature "made in Israel". Must be rare.
I bought a Huge Chinese C-Clamp the same day there, btw ...heh heh
...Oh! and NAPA's "top-gun"(the best off the shelf, that is) grease gun also Made In China, works fine so far

 

I know for a fact that mine won't pass inspection. I UBER cheated and bought an inspection sticker off a buddy of mine to hold me over while I get the Jeep to an inspectable point.

 

Mine will pass its just a matter of having time and money at the same time.

Here they don't use stickers anymore its all electronic. It is attached to your licence plate info. So if a cop pulls you over he runs your tags and can tell if you are inspected or not.

 

Oh dang...thats scary. We're still using stickers

 

ahh.. the wonders of Michigan! I would hate this inspection crap...

 

I am just glad I don't live in a place that does emissions testing.
