Dukie 564, sorry for the confusion, these numbers are not mine but from the manual. I just finished a fuel pressure test and at idle mine was running at 42 PSI. When I had a friend turn on the ignition for the fuel pump to prime the fuel pump would push 20 PSI and then fall very fast.

sounds like your pump (or at least the check valve in the pump) is on it's way out

So replacing the pump will replace the check Valve?

my wiring for upstream o2 sensor frayed on the exhaust manifold and cutting and soldering wires i came up short and dont have enough wire....can i take apart the main harness along the fuel rail and run the wiring down the back of the engine? or does the wiring have to be a certain length to give the appropriate voltage?

Length shouldn't matter

Hi guys. My '99 XJ Limited makes a "pop" as we enter a curve. This one single pop occurs whether we're entering into a right or left curve and the steering wheel spoke is no longer on the horizontal.

My local shop performed MA state vehicle inspection yesterday (pass). The mechanic was able to identify the offending component while I gurked the wheel back-n-forth. I'm at work, need to call-in the part order to my local AP store, but I cannot remember the name of the component in-question (too much going on - had another brainfart - sucks getting old).

Will one of you please be so kind as to post the figure page from the FSM showing the '99 XJ steering components (it's the figure with the arrows and names of the parts)? Otherwise please name the component (track bar?) that has one end bolted to the frame at the driver side end and to the centerlink (or something like that) at the passenger side end of the business.

Much appreciated...

Not positive what year this is but most steering components should be the same.

Hey "Bush League 96 XJ"!!! That was way-y-y better than a page from the FSM!

A Track-Bar it is then. Thank You very much. Happy muddy trails to you!
