Do you guys have the owners manual pdf for jeep Cherokee 90' my grandpa lost it back in the day can't find it it would be really nice if I had it because I'm new to cars and really like this Cherokee and want to learn more about it
​

 

I'm not aware of a PDF version but hopefully someone else can chime in on that. I've got a few off of ebay over the years. I also check for manuals when I make my junk yard runs. I've never paid more than a couple of bucks for one.

Welcome to the forum!

 

Might as well grab a Chilton manual or a Haynes manual while you're at it..
The best thing you can get is the Factory Service Manual for your Grandpa's jeep, along with all of the extra appendixes for drivetrain and other systems. But you can do and learn so much just from the main service manual if you cant get them all right now. Do a good search on the internet to find a free download copy of the service manual. You may get lucky and not have to pay for it. There's also options on ebay for copies of the factory manual on CD or DVD for cheap. You'll probably have to pay for a Chilton or Haynes, but they're normally under $20. I got mine for a little over $10 from ebay if I remember correctly.

Here is someone else's opinion I found on reddit, and providing good guidance on finding a service manual on ebay.

"Factory manuals and Mitchell manuals are the best and have the least misprints, especially for wiring diagrams, and they provide the most information about diagnosing anything that's controlled by computer, like emissions, fuel, entertainment, and security systems. Unfortunately factory manuals are expensive, but some sources sell inexpensive DVDs or downloads of them, and some websites that specialize in just 1 brand of vehicle may offer downloads for free.Chilton's, Haynes, and AllData aren't nearly as good and can be full of generic information that may not even apply to your vehicle. Some AllData information is available free through AutoZone.com.

Libraries may carry Mitchell, Chilton's, or AllData online. Chilton's can be hard to navigate if you get a partial diagram that continues on another page -- there are no hyperlinks or references to those pages, and their search system is awful. Libraries also have some automotive information from EBSCO, the best being ARRC -- Automotive Repair Reference Center, which seemed to contain lots of pages taken from factory repair manuals. Their worst may be AutoMate, which seems to contain little more than maintenance information, and they may have replaced that with ARC - Auto Repair Center, which isn't nearly as good as ARRC."

 

What I just found:

And another one:

https://jeep-manual.ru/index.php?page=XJ

Not owners manuals, but good info.
I haven't seen a cheap owners manual yet.

 

From this site you can free download the Factory Service Manual, and probably the Parts Manual as well

These are invaluable if you wish to retain your Jeep longtime

As to the Drivers Handbook, you possibly may be able to download your year by using Google search, that is how I found my '96, and I am pretty sure there were other years

I personally would obtain the correct A5 sized handbook for your year, either from ebay etc, ring wreckers, or put advert in "wanted" on this forum
I would be surprised if there isnt one on ebay now, $50 would be ok

 

First and foremost, head over and look through the great tips for Renix era Jeeps at cruiser54.com. You'll also find the documentation you seek under the tech section.

 

Thanks I found what you said it's just couple of bucks online and I think it will help but there is one thing more that I just can't understand I have looked it up but can't find anything my when ı start the car sometimes the Reb gets up to 1 and stays there and then ı stop it and start the engine again it goes even more up to 2k rpm i can't understand the issue if I wait some time it passes (sometimes) i just want to know what the source of the problem may be

 

It will rev up to 1000, or 2000 RPMs after you start it? And it stays running at 1000, or 2000 RPMs without touching the gas pedal?

 

I would start by cleaning the throttle body and the tip of the idle air control (IAC) motor. Avoid getting solvents in the throttle position sensor, they're easily damaged with solvents and pressure washers. It's also pretty easy to test the throttle position sensor with a meter. A multi-meter is an essential tool for troubleshooting, and a decent one is around $20. Even the $1.99 one at Harbor Freight is fine for basic auto work.

The next suspect would be a vacuum leak, which isn't surprising when you have 24-year old rubber and vinyl vacuum lines. I think I already mentioned cruiser54.com for great info on the older Cherokees, including refreshing all of the ground connections, especially the one by the dipstick bracket where a most of the important sensors ground.

 

One of those links up there to archive.org is not functioning now. Try this for various service manuals, but I didn't see 1990 specific.

Didn't find any PDF owner's manuals for '90.

 

Maybe I need to be less subtle? Go here --> https://cruiser54.com/?page_id=365

 

​​​​​oh thanks it was the IAC I have learned that this jeep in particular had washed with literal soap and water I took out the IAC and cleaned it now it works thanks for the info it was the IAC and sorry about the late reply I had exams to prepare so I kinda forgot about this thanks again

 

If you're looking for the owner's manual for a 1990 Jeep Cherokee, I suggest checking online car owners manuals websites like carmanuals, JustGiveMeTheDamnManual. They have a huge collection of PDFs for various car manuals. I got mine from carmanuals.org website.
