I got a new starter, and got it in now I need gas in it

 

Mine is electric.... The starter that is..

 

Washed and waxed both the YJ and XJ. Doing both vehicles was pointless considering Im taking the XJ wheeling on Monday lol

 

Vacuumed it and found some $$$

Then inspected under and found my fuel pump connector dangling and hitting the differential. (I went there cause i got an engine light P0001 Fuel Volume Regulator Control Circuit/Open and my fuel gauge stopped working)

The wires are damaged right flush with the plug. Sigh.. now I have to bypass a couple wires on that plug.

also noticed my rear bump stops are missing. That explains the loud bang when I was wheeling with family and all my gear.

Now Lets fix those

 

Step 1: take off the ratty *** trim out from under the bumper - check



Step 2: cut off those ugly *** corner pieces - tbd



Step 3: slap bumper back on, call it good

 

Took the rack off and pre-washed it yesterday, and finished washing it this morning.

 

Random question, Whats the story on how you lost the old drivers back door?

 

Made the 2 mile trip to the dump and back. It is interesting how well it runs on 5 cylinders so now I'm on the hunt for a new motor for the old girl

 

Disconnect your injector for the bad cylinder and you won't burn unneccary fuel until you find a replacement. It would sound weird but you could go as far as removing the spark plug too. Why compress air that won't be used. (If you don't plan a rebuild that is)
I've never actually done this but its just a thought I had.

 

It was hit by a f150 on that door back when it was stock and has a good size gash in it. I still have the old door and it still opens and closes but lets in a lot of air/water so I just grabbed a new set when I had to cut the passenger side door off to get it to open after I got a little carried away at Tahuya lol. The new doors work good but the different red is kinda annoying...

 

Even more importantly if you can't ignite the fuel in the cylinder all the fuel will wash the oil off the cylinder walls, not good. Plus it's like dumping gas into your oil.

 

Used the winch to extract some big shrubs my buddy was giving me the hauling them home to be planted.

 

Washed the xj after playing at tahuya then picked up a full size spare for my rig and then picked up a bunch of rover parts for my land rover. God I just loooove rovers.

 

Got the corners done thanks Slim


Also found a great spot for the horns, not like they work, but still lol

 

Oil change, new spark plugs, topped off some fluids, new front brakes and washed it all up.
