    Cleaning throttle body

    If you're going to use brake cleaner, I'd recommend removing the throttle body and applying the brake cleaner to a rag and wiping instead of just spraying down the intake while it's on top of the block. Brake cleaner can and will degrade rubber and plastic parts and seals, i.e. potentially bad...

    Gas Overflowing?

    Topping off is not a good idea, which is why "they" tell you not to do it. That said, I will sometimes carefully top off my tank when driving a long distance. I can usually get almost an extra gallon in there, which equates to 15-20 miles of highway driving. I always pump slowly though, and I...

    Noise: "Squeak Squeak" on cold start

    Yeah, fuel pump was a thought I had, too. Does it run at constant RPM? Listen to the video- just before I crank the engine, you can hear a whirring noise when I turn the key to "run". Isn't that the fuel pump?

    Noise: "Squeak Squeak" on cold start

    It stops on its own about a minute or so after I start up. The noise only occurs when the Jeep's been sitting overnight.

    Noise: "Squeak Squeak" on cold start

    Yup, it's a weird one. I crawled under there tonight and found a broken, dry-rotted vent line coming off the rear brake junction block. I installed a new line, but I don't see how that was causing the squeaking.

    New Hitch from HitchAnything

    After last weekend's wheeling adventure, I decided I needed a hitch as well. I found a class III hitch on Amazon for $108 shipped. Maybe it's the same hitch as yours. No wiring with it, but like dude, I only plan to use it for recovery purposes. I can get wiring later if I change my mind.

    OME on back-order - Is TJM an "ok" alternative??

    OME seems to be on backorder a lot with some vendors, but Jeepin By Al got me mine with no delay.

    Adding a jerry can

    Question: Where the hell do you get a new Jerry can? I can't find them anywhere except online (thanks, California!) and nobody ships here. Any stores in NV carry them?

    parking brake adjustment

    No kidding!!! I was wheeling the other day and really needed my parking brake, but it wouldn't hold the Jeep even on a fairly mild incline. Then once I was back on pavement, it seemed to work fine and the handle felt a lot tighter. My parking brake sort of comes and goes like that- I think I...

    Noise: "Squeak Squeak" on cold start

    UPDATE: This morning I started up, and got out to listen to where the noise is actually coming from. It is definitely coming from under the back of the Jeep, and it does not change at all when I rev the engine or start driving. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xVuU4zxSu8&feature=youtu.be...

    Noise: "Squeak Squeak" on cold start

    It might be time to change the belt or the tensioner, I have a trail spare that I could try, just to see if it fixes things. But doesn't the belt spin up with the engine RPM?

    Noise: "Squeak Squeak" on cold start

    Nobody? Wow, I must have a good one here. I figured you guys would be all over this. I will try to record it and post tomorrow.

    Noise: "Squeak Squeak" on cold start

    OK gents, a noise I'm at a loss to explain: This started a few months ago, maybe longer. When I first start up the Jeep after sitting overnight, I hear a "squeak squeak" noise about 2x per second. The weird thing is, it's not related to engine or drive-shaft/tire speed- it sounds exactly the...

    Misfire Issue--HELP!

    Good outcome. Nice to see a dealer that doesn't charge you for all they can. I will file this one away in my bag o' tricks.
