Just looking for some Cherokee's to play in the mud with sometime. I wanna go get stuck but don't wanna be stranded when i do lol. PM me if you are in the area. My xj is currently not feeling well but if you wanna swing by and try and trouble shoot it with me let me know im always in the mood to tinker and get her back up and running.

im in sanford as well what are you having troubles with?

My 90 2.5L xj is just really boging down and osillating really bad. i think its because i am getting too much fuel.. its probably a sensor but i can't track down which one it would be without tools i don't have lol. but if my guesses are correct its gonna be my MAP sensor. I saw a blog online about how to modify one to make it controllable from the interior on command which is sweet but i don't wanna do all that for nothing if its my TPS or CPS or O2 sensors u know.

If you can drive to discount you can use one of there handheld diagnostic tool and it will pinpoint what it is

90xjowner

I can drive it up there but it wouldn't do any good its a 1990. its pre OBD II so it won't tell the diagnostic machine anything even if they could hook it up to the jeep. but good idea, keep em' coming i can always use the extra thoughts. I am gonna work on it hopefully this weekend and swap out the MAP and tighten down the exhaust manifold bolts... i know xjs have a big problem with those bolts working themselves loose and if that fixes the issue i am gonna go get another gasket and put locktight on em' to keep them from backing out ... or maybe just locking washers, havn't decided yet

I know one thing that helped mine out a ton was taking the throttle body assy off and cleaning it out real good. Try that, and or a tps sensor sounds about right

Borego

Do you have a winch?

90xjowner

I'll check into that too oddly enough though if I look up a tps at autozone or advance 90 s models done have tps but 91's do lol and no its a bone stock 90 2.5L 2wd base model xj no winch just a few cheapo aftermarket fog lights I've had since I got it

next time we go out I will let you know, It prob wont be for another few weeks got alot of stuff coming in for the jeep that needs to be done before I can get it off jackstands

Just got my 93 Cherokee :-) throwing in a new clutch kit and Ill be wheeling. Its only a few mods, but enough to get out and play in.

In the same boat with you guys, don't want to get out and get stuck without the help.

Im in the Sanford Area everyday and live in Oviedo.

What's up guys, I know this post is a little old, but I just got my XJ, Took it to 5A on Saturday and it tore it up! I am always looking for new places to wheel and people to wheel with. Got a few Jeep buddies but could always use more! Just need to fix the same problem as 90xjowner, mines bogging and cutting off as well.

Here's a shot from 5A

hey, i live right down the road from you. i've been to 5a once with some people on orlando forums. so i'd be down to take a trip out there with fellow jeepers.

90xjowner

Hey guys, it has been awhile, I finally figured out what my problem is on mine atleast. I dropped the gas tank to find that the tube connecting the fuel gauge assembly to the pump wasn't on all the way and was riddled with holes. I replaced it, runs great, but since then I sold it to a friend who wanted to drop a 360 in it and throw it up on 35s its looking pretty good. But with that being said I don't have my xj anymore

where do you go wheelin in Eustis? That is were I live and it gets harder to find a spot every day. They have closed down so much of the forest.
