What year did cherokee's switch to coil pack's?
I am getting ready to buy a cherokee for my wife to replace a vini van.
And I hate coil pack's and did not know cherokee's even had them at any time till I saw a 2001.So I want to know the last year they still had regular plug's and wire's ect?

(84-99) XJ Cherokees have a normal Coil and Distributor ignition system.
(00-01) XJ Cherokees have the Coil on Plug (COP) ignition system....I believe this is what you are refering to as a Coil Pack Ignition.

sounds like you just dont like it bc its different. coil packs are more efficient than a distributor and wires. theres actually LESS to go wrong, and theyre more maintenance free.

yah I know a guy with a 01 that had all kinds of problems with em,and know a couple of other peaple with coil issue's in car's.One coil pack can cost as much as a set of wires and a cap and button.and any body with half a brain should have no problems dealing with wires ect.
