After months I finally hope I found the reason why my jeep wouldnt work!!! HAPPY DANCE!!

 

wtf man you can't post like that an not tell/show us whats up

 

yeah im super curious now!!!

 

*edge of seat......

 

Ok well the 1989 jeep cherokee 4.0L just died on me one day. I changed out the batterey cables, coil, new spark plugs and wires, a new distrubtor, a new alternator(sp?) and also the crank postion sensor. Basically I did everything besides a new engine almost. All that didnt help at all. So we took it down to the timing chain and the timing chain jumped on me. So my timeing was off. Going to buy a new chain this weekend and put it in and hopefully this works now!!

 

oh wow to my knowledge the timing couldnt jump on a renix. only break a gear or the chain...

 

well i must have one of a million one that could happen to then

 

Must feel good to finally find out the problem after a couple of months!!

 

Yeah if thats the problem, i still got to check to see if it is but what else is left there to do?

 

Right on dood!!

 

ecu?

Its cranking but not firing correct?


Edit: Not trying to make you not think you found the problem, just sayin. Also If you seen the timing chain was off, Im sure that was it.

 

it always feels good to finally figure out a problem.

 

Actually it wasnt doing anything there for a while. Was thinking of replace the ecu to but don't have the money for it!!
