My A/C clutch pack failed, and the bearing was on its way out. I bought a kit from ebay with a new bearing, electromag coil, and clutch plates. It was about $60 and works great.

Just replaced my stater and now when I drive my XJ is has a burning smell. Is this normal? Does it have some sort of coating it burns off after usage? I checked my engine temp. gauge after about 30 min of driving and its showing nothing out of the ordinary.
Vehicle is a '96 Jeep Cherokee Country.

Which fuel pump: Walbro or Bosch?
Alright guys, I've done lots of searching and the general consensus I'm getting is to get the Carter fuel pump and strainer set because it's OEM. GREAT!
But there's two options...
Carter P74057 with a Walbro pump
-or-
Carter P74155 with a Bosch pump
By the way, this is for a '92 4.0
My other question is, being as the fuel check valve on these is part of the pump unit... is it in the pump or is it in the assembly?
My check valve is bad and I have low fuel pressure, so I know I need to replace the pump, but the gauge works fine, so I know I don't need the sender. I just don't want to replace the pump and then find out I still have to do the poor man's prime just to get it to start.

I guess this is where i ask questions?
Here it goes. I have a shot np242, i found another from a friend for a good deal. The problem is it has plugs in different locations. Mine has a pkug next to the speedo plug, his doesnt, but they are both np242's. I drive a 96 cherokee country.
Mine has the white speedo plug, his has the black speedo plug and is shot top down, but it doesnt have the plug next to it.

gear and all
and put it in the new transfer case
I just went through this. NP231 froma 1996 (3-wire sender w/ short shaft gear) into a 1992 (2-wire sender w/ a long shaft gear). But you have to swap the entire assemblies on both.
