I was on my way to change my oil at my dads house because my tools are there and I noticed my check engine light was on. I changed my oil and called a friend with an obd2 scanner. Got p1491. I changed the relay for the aux fan while waitin for my buddie to get there with the tool so now I just gotta meet up with him again and clear the code. It was my fault because earlyer today I was messin with the aux fan relay because the fan wont kick on when my temp gets over 210. Guess I should have cleared the code when he was there. And not have done what I did to the relay.
ps dont bend the relay pins to see if they will contact better in the plug.

There are ways to do things like this that make it really easy to do.

Rock guarded the bottom part of the jeep. Then noticed how bad the wiper arms looked, so pulled them off sanded them down and painted them. Then looked at all the scratches on the side of the jeep and wondered how well Scratch-X works. Grabbed some from the house (was my brothers probably) and gave it a try. Ended up doing the whole Jeep! I guess I was in the mood to work tonight...

Got it from Cap It. It is a Carr Light Wing. It was an easy an inexpensive solution to get the lights mounted up front. They were too big to mount directly to the bumper. The wing bolts onto the bumper then the lights just bolt onto the wing.

Found this little **** in my jeep today...

Guess I just made a honey do list for myself this weekend...

That brown 3" ish hole surrounded by rust is a hole to the ground..

Wondered why my passenger side floor was wet!

Think I know of how I might go about fixing it but any tips??

I modified the catalytic and exhaust system. I think that my car is better than before.
