A Haynes/Chiltons manual will have all the diagrams you need. I feel like Chiltons usually has more accurate diagrams.

No idea why my temp gauge stopped working. Not the sensor or the guage itself, can find any pinched wires. Ideas?

I feel like a metal punch would be the safest.

Honestly, I'd just drill a big *** hole in the bottom. Or drop the whole tank. Don't forget to get the fuel pump out of it. Those cost lots of money.

I was thinking a drill too. Then figure out a great way to catch all the gas...

Can I leave all plastic dash and stuff loose in there or do I have to just toss that?

Either way, I assumed you mean that you XJ is running fine you just feel that it is lacking the power that it used to have before adding modifications.

What size tire are you running? 4.0? Automatic?

tire: 225/70 Rim 15
4.0
Auto.

Would the driveshaft yoke from a 2wd ba10 be different from a 94 4x4 ax15?
