Okay, so oil is good in my transfer case NP-231, what else would cause a sloppy chain. If a bearing or something went bad, would that cause some slack? Thanks

 

HI I hav a 94 grand cherokee for the past cpl of months it seemed like when it was moist outside I wld hav a hard time getting it started i wld hav to just keep cranking it and eventually it would start it wld run a little rough until it warmed up then wld run normal then two weeks ago I drove it for well over an hour it ran fine then parked it for about two hours and it hasn't started ever sense it was really cold out that night but I ended up changing the distributor cap and rotor and still won't start and it's getting plenty of spark I read on here to turn the key on off on off on and the check engine light flashes 1 time 2 times 5 times then another 5 times but idk how to find out what that means if anyone cld help me that wld b great thanks

 

If you're sure it's 12 55 THen you might want to check all the battery cables etc. code 12 is disconnected battery, and code 55 is end of all codes. http://www.troublecodes.net/chrysler/89-95jeep/

You might even need a new battery.

 

Ok thanks I actually did put a new battery in the same time I changed the Cap and rotor but from cranking it so much it went dead so I had it hooked up to a jump box that must be why the code went off i only really checked the spark from the coil pack wire do u think it cld just b bad plug wires I can hear the fuel pump kick on

 

Ok thanks I actually put a new battery in when I changed the Cap and rotor but it went dead from cranking it so much I had a jump box hooked up when I got that code so that's probably why I really only checked the spark from the coil pack wire do u think the plug wires cld just be bad I checked all my fuses too they were good and I can hear my fuel pump kick on idk what else to look for

 

Ken, please use punctuation. Many of us are more than willing to help, but we refuse to try if you won't. If you throw some periods in those posts, and maybe a few commas, I'll try reading them.

Not trying to be rude here. Just being honest.

 

Ok thanks for the heads up I'm new to this, but appreciate the info.

 

sometimes we try hard to decipher what someone is saying and misunderstand what he/she meant and give out wrong advice. That wouldn't be too good, right?

So for us to truly help you out, having proper punctuation goes long way.

 

My friend just bought a ZJ and I know nothing about them. He got it from copart. It's a 97 grand Cherokee with the 5.2 V8. When we first started it, it ran find. The. We put it in gear and it died. Now, when we try to start it, it won't stay running unless I give it gas, otherwise it'll just immediately stall out. Any ideas? Thanks

 

Idle air control valve? Any OBD codes? BTW there's and ask the question thread in the Grand cherokee section...ask me how I know

 

I could have sworn I saw you create one the other day, I was checking it out. But I couldn't find it when I looked just now. And IAC is what I thought. Thanks guys.

Are XJ and ZJ front control arms the same?

 

The internet says yes, but I've never touched a ZJ control arm with my own hands
