    Random Misfire Conundrum

    moisture in the PCM connector can also cause this, as long as the moisture is frozen it stays nice and compact, once it melts from engine heat it causes a problem until it finds a happy place see a lot of this sort of thing in the winter, moisture, cracks in plastic sensors, weak...

    Suspension pop?

    if the intermediate is seized in the cv, it's likely seized due to wear of the splines on the intermediate, eventually it can wear enough theyll rotate independently from one another causing all sorts of nasty sounding racket and or vibrations at speed as long as you stick with reman parts...

    Help me figure out where this wire goes

    it goes right there about 2 inches to the "north west" of where it is at this moment, its supposed to be under the head of the bolt there in the picture that has dirt rubbed off of the top edge of it as if its been recently removed and someone forgot to put the ground wire back ;)

    3.7 Auto tough going into drive

    was it the vehicle behavior that was "stiff going into gear" or the shift lever itself that was stiff? it may be a simple misaligment with the shift cable or some sort of obstruction *dead mouse or what have you* if it was the shift lever, it may be mud or some obstruction on the side of the...

    05 stuck in reverse

    all the interlocks and preventatives besides monitoring of the position of the lever non-obstructively is done at the brake, ignition switch and shift lever inside the vehicle, there's no referees i guess you could say to prevent manual movement of the linkage under the vehicle with the cable...

    05 stuck in reverse

    as for the 3 wire vs 4 wire , the 4 wire is the VLP that came in 2006 look on the drivers side of the transmission, do you see 3 wires, or is there 4 laying looking dead at the side of the drivers side of the transmission, youll see the shift cable linkage, going left to right, looks kind of...

    05 stuck in reverse

    it should have a mil code if the transmission itself bound up at anypoint, its 1776 the crd's have a 545RFE which is basically a 45RFE with an additional OD. otherwise, pan, filters etc are identical to the 45RFE your bolt counts correct 45RFE was used in gas KJ's up until the 3rd month of...

    Sway bar end links lifted KJ

    throw a torque wrench on your 4 upper strut mount bolts, sometimes with top plates they'll get in a bind during installs and give a false torque only to show up loose later when they unbind after months of driving around and hitting bumps usually if sway endlink bushings are shot its pretty...

    Overdrive button use .

    the TC still locks up in 3rd with the OD off button here, ill give you a simple test you can play with (if you want) turn od on approach a hill and gradually apply throttle until it kicks down to 3rd, given the behavior of the 42RLE, itll be 3rd Unlocked , note RPM's when it does this. and...

    2002 KJ 3.7L - *BRAND* of Gas

    Ewing's refinery is in Virginia and only supply about <15% of stations in VA or NC , they primarily do heating oils and low demand deliveries to places like the outerbanks and islands so, at least for ewing oil, their gas doesn't come from "the same refineries as everyone elses" it's gulf crude...

    Manual trans question

    i remember my uncle had a old toyota late 60s somethin 40 that once the slave got hot youd lose the clutch and the pedal would get hard as a rock and youd have to stop get out and let it cool down / spray water on it or whatever, smoke a doob. its an atypical slave failure that causes it, fault...

    2002 KJ 3.7L - *BRAND* of Gas

    its not your imagination, it actually does drop "faster" from half to fuel light than it does from F to half, but that's because you have to use about 3-4 gal. for it to come off of F. and there's about 3-4 gal difference in half to fuel light than there is half to F in miles, about 45-65mi...
