Yes. But, it can lead to blindness and/or needing corrective lenses.

They should be able to rotate.

Are they leaking fuel or sucking air? Have you spryes the area with throttle body cleaner with it running to check for vacuum leaks?

Default Aftermarket fog lights

Hi, I'm looking to replace my factory fog lights on my '97 XJ with some aftermarket LED ones that can fit in the same slots. Has anyone done this? if so what did you use so I can get an idea. Thanks.

Would it be possible for me to splice the coolant temp sensor that goes in the head, into the coolant temp sensor in the t-housing? So both the computer, and gauge get a reading from the same sensor.

I don't think so. The sensors read and output differently

Does anybody know the dimensions for u-bolts for the D35? I have friends who work for fastenal and can get me hardware for cheap.

Can anybody confirm 2.75" w? But how about length?
Those are some of the dimensions I'm finding online right now.

Default Help Please 2006 Grand Cheroke Turn Signal issue

The left turn signal stays on all of the time except when the right turn signal is on or the hazard lights are on. Everything else seems to work fine. Advice? Thank you in advance.
