Default Thanks and I am a believer

Just a post to say thanks to everyone who supports this site. I have been a Cherokee owner for a short time and have rely on this site to purchase my vehicle (1994 Jeep Cherokee, 168k, 4.0L, Auto, Stock) and have fixed my safety neutral switch, changed all hoses and the serpentine belt based upon information from this site. I went ahead and replaced the thermostat with a MOPAR OEM thermostat (although it was twice the price of a NAPA high end one) and I am very pleased with the results. I am not very handy but having this site has given me the confidence to fix things. It takes me twice (maybe 4 times!) to do something (I will not tell you how may ways I put on the serpentine belt before I got it right). And putting in the MOPAR thermostat took care of a lot of minor problems.
What can I say but thanks!

I can echo the praise of the OP

I haven't even gotten mine on the road yet, but have found so many things here to do to make it right first.

Thanks everyone.

My Jeep would not be running as well as it is now if I hadn't received help from this site.

I've always said, if you can put fuel in a car you can do a lot of mechanical repairs. I've been working on my own cars since I was 15. It took me 4 tries to get the dang serp belt on my MJ.
