I found that on google. Don't know which one that is though. She didn't come with a manual.

Question

I have a 99 jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, 4L. I'm having issues with it starting, it turns over but acts like its not getting gas. The fuel pump is priming though as i can hear it. this is an intermittent prob, sometimes it'll start right up and run fine till the engine dies while I'm on the road. Occasionally if i put the jeep in neutral while I'm still coasting, the engine Will kick back on, other times i need to pull over or off the road and try to start it, so far it Had started but it takes time some times. I'm at a loss and cant afford to just throw money into parts that don't need changed please help! Thanks.

This is for an XJ, but your ZJ will be extremely close.

Can anyone tell me how to verify the axles and gear ratio on my xj? I tried to decode the vin but it didn't help. Thanks in advance.

Looks like a trick I used to do in my K5 blazer. Too much bouncin around dislodged a wire or two from behind the fuse panel, so I just used a jumper to get power where I needed. Good for a temp fix. I would recommend properly addressing that issue. Any idea what it powers?

I'm not sure. Guess ill have to look into it. I try to stay away from wiring myself. Hoping somebody on here might be able to tell me what that 30 amp silver thing runs.

How difficult would it be to swap a 231J from a 95 into my 90? Swapping due to mileage mainly.

well i had this great idea about a homemade ram air induction does anyone know if this could be done with a marine bilge blower? A bilge blower is basically an electric turbine fan used to eject water or exhausts from an area in a boat

Thanks, Rob

Can someone help me with this question? Do I need to post it somewhere else?

When you flick the switch does the light on the switch turn on?

No. I guess it is just that simple. Sorry for the dumb question.
