    Air Conditioner Troubles

    That's what I've been hearing. 2003KJ also suggested that it could simply be overfilled and causing the Hi/Lo pressure valves which Corwyyn mentioned to be tripping. It's going in tomorrow. I would have a friend help me fix it, but we've already given money to the dealership weeks ago to fix it...

    Oil light / idiot light

    If it comes on randomly, that's the same issue I had with mine right around 70K miles.

    Air Conditioner Troubles

    Ok, I am a bit confused with my Jeep right now. Now that it has started to warm up here in AZ, it has been necessary to crank up the ac again. However, it will run ice cold for about 10 minutes, then the air is at least as warm as the ambient air temperature for about 5 minutes, then it goes...

    Great day to clean

    Nice cars. Both look great and I always thought those Malibu SS models looked like fun.

    Cleaning mud off rubber trim ?

    For actually cleaning it, use 303 Aerospace. They sell it at most auto parts supply places and it is a very versatile product. It will not actually shine up the black, but it will remove most contaminants off it easily so you have a clean surface. EDIT: Here is a link to the manufacturer...

    New here, Pictures of my 2004 Sport 4x4 Lifted

    That looks awesome! I'm also jealous that you are in San Diego.

    Fuel grade - 3.7KJ

    Oh, Socks, what do you mean by additives make your check engine light come on? I try to add the Chevron Techron additive they sell at the auto parts stores every 5000 miles and I can usually see an improvement after i use it.

    Fuel grade - 3.7KJ

    You're right. Many of the European cars are also designed to run at higher compressions, so you are losing performance by running lower octane fuels. The same goes with many of the sportbikes I've seen. In fact, I've heard of many people enriching the fuel beyond 91 to get better performance out...

    removing lenses?

    Yeah, we just had to replace the bulbs in my taillights. It almost feels like you are about to break it when taking it out. Never been a fan of all these plastic clips.

    Review: Pinnacle Leather Cleaner and Conditioner

    I'll definitely admit that is not what the stuff I used looked like. The Pinnacle was a little on the pricey side, but Autogeek runs a lot of specials it seems.

    OK Now I'm Moving to China El Liberty!

    No thanks. Something about the scale just seems off.

    air filters & induction kits

    Yeah, you are right that most people on here it will not matter and I didn't realize it would be that easy. I wasn't trying to bash your creation either by the way, it was just something I noticed that I wanted to point out before we got the "hydrolocked my motor, I've seen these go through...

    fuel overflow

    Hmm. Well, it seems like everyone who has posted about having the problem has between an '03 and an '05. Also, could temperature have something to do with it? I was just thinking that if it happened in freezing temperatures, that could be an option. I don't know, just throwing out ideas.

    fuel overflow

    2002 here and I have never had that happen, even with the vintage pumps I have used in Northern California.

    Rear Wiper. What a hassle!!!!

    It's really weird. I had absolutely no trouble finding the wiper here in AZ. Went into the first Checker I passed, and they had all three blades for the Jeep. It seems like the majority of people have a really difficult time finding it.

    Review: Pinnacle Leather Cleaner and Conditioner

    I just received Pinnacle Leather Cleaner and I have to recommend it for the Mopar leather. It worked extremely well, made the leather feel softer than new, and I actually went through three microfiber towels before it stopped removing dirt and grime from the seats. My Jeep has 120K miles on it...

    Fabric seat cleaning

    I just used this stuff on the floor mats of my Jeep and it worked spectacular. It is special order only as far as I know and has a rather potent smell, but it works extremely well. http://autogeek.net/dp310.html

    My Silver KJ

    Nice Jeep. It's kinda funny, I only became a fan of the newer styled front end of the KJ after they stopped making it.
