ok have another question for you guys ?? is Selling a 99 Wrangler ( perfect body also garaged) that use to have a 4cyl. in it, we put a 4.0 6cyl motor and tranny and transfer case and computer in it from the Cherokee , but the mechanic didn't measure motor mounts right so the drive shafts did not fit , is all that worth $2500.00

2000 is low for even an older non-operational rusty wrangler
look on craigslist or ebay and see what people are getting out of them.
KBB lists them at $4400-5300 in fair/good condition. You should expect to get at least $5k out of it all things considered.

You can't get a wrangler for under $6,5 in Cleveland, and for one without rust, you're looking at a five digit price tag. $2,500 for something that moves is a great price, and you definitely shouldn't go lower.

Will it hurt anything if my heater core hoses are switched? I have a '91 4.0 and i removed hcv today. Right now the tstat hose runs to the top nipple on htr core. The water pump is hooked to the bottom nipple. Thx!

I thought the heater core nipples and hoses were different sizes. Maybe on my 96 its different.

Gremlins in the Instrument Cluster:
So, about every 2-3 months, one of the smaller gauges (oil pressure, temp., battery) will freak out, and go all the way the right. The "check gauges" red warning light also illuminates. I will shut the engine off, and it goes away and returns to normal after I restart. This used to just happen to the oil pressure, but now it's the battery and temp as well.
I was never really that concerned as it would go back to normal, but I'm thinking it may be a more serious electrical issue. Any thought?

Does it work? I don't think it is directional.
