I always read that the XJs don't like the bosch O2 sensors. I've put NTK on mine.

Radiator FINALLY gave up the ghost around noon. Was hoping to get through hunting season but........... Anyways I got it tore down. Darn water pump fins virtually look like new(160k miles). Inside of head and block are spotless. All pulleys are spinning GOOD. Replacing the belt and idler while it's down. Enough for today.

Finally after 20 months of owning my Jeep I got the driver door to lock. I replaced the actuator with a used one from Lowrange. That wasn't the complete issue even though it was grinding every time I would use the power locks. Turned out the fix was to bend the linkage between the actuator and lock on the door panel. This made me extremely happy.

Umm... correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe they came with Bosch units from the factory.

My lock stopped working (from button inside) but i know i bent the linkage and don't feel like pullig the door card off again to fix it. My passenger door won't lock/unlock with the key. Just need to clean it out.

I honestly don't know. Most threads on o2 sensors i read have said get NTK instead of bosch. I will look into it.

I still have my OEM o2's laying around just cause Im a pack rat when it comes to Jeep stuff..lol

Well for my 2000 the part # F00HL00048 comes back to Bosch and for the 95,,, 00028851157049 or (15704) come back to Bosch

But both my Jeeps run better with the NTK..don't know why don't care..

Strange. Rock Auto lists NTK as OEM of o2 sensors for both the 2000 and 1995 XJ.
