What did you do to your jeep today?
Jeep is officially headless. Got the driver side head off tonight thanks to the stubby ratcheting wrench advice of TJKJ and Tom. Worked like a charm. That's a tight fit. Hopefully you can't see all the mouse crap in the images. Now off to the machine shop to see if they can be rebuilt... and...- 02blue

front crank seal leak
From pic crank is obvious and oil pressure sensor is just above and a bit right of the oil filter. It can leak and run a long way. Common leak point. I didn't tale a pic of my timing cover where the crank seal had a slight leak but I'd check the oil pressure sender first.- 02blue

2002 Oil Puff on cold start?
The PCV is on the side of the oil fill spout. Those things at the back (both sides) are additional breathers. Why they didn't put the PCV back there is beyond me. Would have eliminated all that sludge from the front in the cold weather. I guess there is a relocation procedure out there for that...- 02blue

front crank seal leak
You sure it's the crank seal and not the oil pressure sensor? When I disassembled the front of mine my crank seal was leaking slightly but the old drippings from the oil sensor was still evident and nearby. Like TJKJ said the puller works like a charm. That was the exact one I have.- 02blue

HG woes, Exhaust manifold clamp!
It's quite the knuckle buster in there. Can't wait to see what that HG looks like. Even though I'm pretty sure the passenger side was the bad one, might as well change both since I've gone this far. Gonna have alot of scrubbing with all that sludge and I've found the secondary tensioners were...- 02blue

HG woes, Exhaust manifold clamp!
Thanks! I was going to go with a standard 10mm but 1/16 of a turn at a time would take hours to get that thing backed off far enough to slip it off. That'll give me an excuse to add to my tool collection. I always wanted a set of ratcheting wrenches so I'll just have to get stubby and regulars...- 02blue

HG woes, Exhaust manifold clamp!
Pulled passenger side head today and it wasn't all that difficult but looked awful. Lots of sludge and the gasket was toast also must have been leaking some coolant into cylinder 4. Pretty sure it was the culprit that was leaking into the oil also. Bolts were quite variable in their tightness...- 02blue

Low speed rumbling noise
Do you have a ball joint press? I've modded one of these to do this. Like CactusJacked said A vise is the only other way I've ever done Ujs.- 02blue

Possible Recall 2002-2007?
Geez that was close to home. Surprised I missed it since I usually read that website every day. I agree completely. Sort of like Mark McGwire and his androstenedione. The GM thing on the other hand is complete crap on their part. Doesn't surprise me at all. I swore off GMs when I got...- 02blue

Enigne knocking/ticking
I'd have to say it can't hurt to change it. Better safe than sorry. I'll be pulling my heads this weekend. No choice now as I've got a slow leak I found this week. Noticed a rapid drop in coolant and lots of foam in the PCV tube even after a two hour drive. No short trips in the cold weather...- 02blue

What did you do to your jeep today?
I've got a Borla dual cat back. Not sure it'd be louder than what you have at idle but really roars when you get it up to about 4000 RPMs. :emotions33:- 02blue

What did you do to your jeep today?
Ha, I just did the same but wasn't pulled over. We typically get the warning ticket around here. If you show any officer/sheriff/trooper and they sign off that its fixed you send it in and no fine.- 02blue

3.7 KJ Timing chain tensioner questions.
Sorry to revive a sort of old thread but I'm trying to figure out exactly what a "bad tensioner" would sound like. This is what I suspect I have but can't find a sound byte. I'm thinking bad secondary but haven't had a stretch of decent weather to pull things apart. Mine is a chatter in front...- 02blue

Enigne knocking/ticking
Glad it turned out well for you. I'm still trying to figure mine out. I crawled all around under it over the weekend and the noise really seems like top-end. I think the knock is actually from the top near the back by #6. Too much echo in my garage and to much loud music in my youth. :rocking...- 02blue

What did you do to your jeep today?
Brushed a half foot of snow off of it and warmed it up. Not sure if it was the snow around it but couldn't hear much of my pesky knock. Just the chatter of the tensioners and a little tap up top. If the weather ever warms I'm gonna pull the top off again and have a look.- 02blue
