Lol **** be shiftin like a mountain bike with four wheels and a steering wheel

Thanks guys,
Talking to my buddy he said to pull the head,
Since there is no coolant in the crankcase and no oil in the radiator (the one that split the seam while climbing mt. Washington) he said it's probably the head gasket or the head is warped or bad.
And those fixes are easier than finding a good 00 or. 01.
By the way I drove it 40 miles back to my campsite by letting it cool when it started losing power.it starts right up now no knocking no ticking. What do you think?

I would get a tupy head and put it on That's what I did for my 01

Thanks guys you always come through!

oh SALAD, i got some meter readings.

Power to Temp Gauge



From sender



Both these from touching mount screws

What would you guys do with this mess?

ye ol' plunger

Lol. There's not really a convenient/efficient way of beating it out. So I thought about a puller of some kind. I just don't know a whole lot about those.

I don't care if it looks pretty. I really just want to get it pulled out enough so I can mount some armor there, to cover it up and protect it

whats there not to know? Go to the bathroom grab your plunger and stick it on and pull with all ya got.

I seriously doubt a plunger will work. Its not popped in. That damage is from the secondary hit when my XJ got totaled. (His minivan spun and smacked it back there) I mean, don't think I won't try it though lol. My XJ is at my dads though and I'm not there.

I'm going to be googling some **** about body work tonight. I just wondering what fellow Cherokee owners would do with it.

If you can weld then you can fix it alone. That or open the weld there and there's ways.

Open the weld on the inside? Or where? Inside of the wheel well is smashed in too. I forgot to snap a pic of that.

I can weld (well I can "weld" still learning really) so I'm not opposed to that. I didn't even really think about the fact I have a parts jeep I could cut that out of. I just don't know if replacing that panel is buying off more than I could chew.

Set it to 2000 ohm range and measure resistance across the pins of the temp sending unit, compare to this chart versus an IR thermometer (I can't remember why you're measuring your temp sending unit lol)

It don't work. Sits at 0 doesnt go up or down sender is brandy new

Ill do this 2mro and report back

There's the automotive hammers that are used with the metal rods you'll weld on. Bang out the welds.
