Recent Fixes:
Flushed heater core Replaced the relay for the cooling fan Known issues: When between the gas tank is 3/4-full it gurgles. Apparently there is a TSB for this and will fix it whenever I drop the tank |
Does anyone knows what this plug is for? And where the original location for what looks like is for the cruise control right below it with the green zip tie on it?

green zip tie is on your vaccuum canister...sposed to be behind your stock bumper, been relocated to your engine bay cuz of your aftermarket bumper
|
Thanks! Been bothering me. The previous owner did somethings im trying to fix

I'll be looking forward to your build.
What front bumper is that? I like it. |
IDK what bumper it is. Probably will sell it to get the one I want hopefully mid summer

Got new tires installed before the snow hit. I think they are amazing so far. Was going to go with grabbers but I think the guy messed up and quoted me 3.50$ more per tire for the K02's so I went with those. Next up is some maintenance items. Will be doing some once we get some ok weather then the rest in the spring.
Going to do the oil and filter (thinking rotella t6 with a wix filter), plugs (NGK FR51?), wires, cap, rotor (no brand in mind),Wix fuel filter, PVC elbows/grommets and throwing a catch can in there to be safe. Spring im thinking all fluids. Coolant, difs everything. Also thinking about throwing a transmission cooler in when I flush the tranny and replace the filter. Up/down stream 02 sensors, GATES K060950 serp belt? Somewhere in between those I want to upgrade the cluster for one with gauges. So Ill need to figure out if Ill need different sensors/senders and what those part numbers are. |

How much pressure you runnin' man? Looks like you're running a little high. The shoulders on those rear tires look pretty clean compared to the centers.
They put like 38psi in them lol. That was at the tire shop, I lowered them to 29psi. Still might be too high... Would do the chalk method but there is no dry ground anywhere right now. Have any suggestions on tire pressure? |

Well with the salt in the parking lot giving you that white portion of the tire you could just lower the pressure till the whole tire is white. Lol but you are probably looking at mid to low 20s for the pressure. Anyways nice xj I'm subbing
