friend has a 96 HO 5 spd. with 170, on it gonna get me copy of work recipts the issue is that while driving it cuts out or feels like not getting fuel. any ideas thanks all

 

I bet it is most likely a bad fuel pump. My number two suspect would be the CPS.

 

Check fuel pressure. That'd be my guess.

Typically if its CPS it wont run at all because timing is off.

When was the last time plugs, wires, cap, etc replaced?

 

LOL....I just found out I've been driving my 78 GMC 454, 4 degrees too far advanced for the past three months. It always has awesome torque and power and gets 8 mpg no matter what, so I never suspected a thing.

 

My 90 does the same thing! But I have blow by on the rings so idk if that's what causes mine or not I would like to find out though cause I'm about to buy a whole new motor cause it sketches me out driving it with the kids

 

aint sure yet but i think the pump was replaced she is goin to get me copys of the work that has been done to it so sorry i dont have all the info on it sound like all the maintenance stuff has been done though not on a regular interval she did take it to a jeep dealer and had them do stuff to it but i guess they didnt fix it figuers anyway thanks all

 

Holy run-on sentence batman!

 

mis fit did you fix it? id check the coil.

 

still waitin on the what work has been done, but i know it still has issues. i gota newb question about mine though, my steering feels very "light", and efortless, i dont know how much i like that. i would think it would be the opposite. idk , so i was curious if anyone in northgate area wanted to give me a hand maybe this weekend gettin my sliders, tank skid and trailer hitch on.? barley pops n chow of course

 

My steering is really light. I like it, less effort to make precision inputs.

 

Tom, have you taken a look at what your steering linkage and trackbar are doing since you've had this "easy steering" condition? I've found if the trackbar is loose or especially when it isn't connected because I broke while wheeling...lol...the steering gets really effortless but, that is because it is much easy for your steering to pull your axle out from under your Jeep side to side than it is for it to move your wheels when you have your trackbar holding the axle under your Jeep like it is supposed to. Have somebody cycle your steering while you get underneath and take a look at what your front end linkages are doing. I bet you find something hokey going on under there.

 

its always seemd kinda light, even before the lift and stuff . i replaced the factory linkage with a HD currie linkage and the track bar along with a drop for it, so all that junk is new. when turnin to the right i do hear a clunk of some sort tho, that said i know my quick disco's rub on my springs. seems weird for it to be so light with bigger heavy tires. i dont think anything is loose or out of adjustment huh? there are no vibes or wabbles when i am goin down the road. i know i aint to hep on it tho. i will get someone to turn it tho and watch what it doin.

 

its your track bar mine used to be like that till my bud made me a hd track bar mount
