CB antenna SWR issue.
I think you have two problems going on. Because the antenna mount goes to your vehicle ground (the other half of your antenna), you are providing a path for DC ground. Do you have the black wire (ground or negative) connected to a good ground (body, sheet metal or even better a ground at the...- al7fi

Tell me what ya think.
If you do not want to take KB0NLY's word for it, contact your local FCC Field Office. That amp on 11 meters makes you stick out like a sore thumb, and by the way crank up your "power mike" while your at it. If you want to run more power and have a flock of frequencies available, get a Ham...- al7fi

What does everybody pay for their fuel
No clue on diesel. Never touch the stuff. Regular is down to $3.25/US gallon right now. Came down from $3.29. Funny thing, it is all refined here in state and it is made from AK crude. Go figure, Beats walking however.- al7fi

Spare tire cover. On or Off?
About 30K miles ago at 72K the right rear Wrangler SRA went flat leaving Anchorage at about 7 PM at around 0 degrees F. Could not get the cover off without tearing it. Snow had blown up inside the cover, and the Liberty had been in my friends shop for an oil change. Snow went to slush and...- al7fi

Oil Filter Removal Tips?
I got my 03 LE 3.7L new back in Jan of 03. I took the skid plate off the first time I changed the oil and learned real fast about the the filter drain gutter. Not even close to the pan under the Jeep. I have found that even with the skid plate on I can replace the filter from below. And would...- al7fi

Hi Beam relay question on 04 KJ
Yes (at least I was able to change my 03). You need the DTRL relay (Rockauto carries them). Remove the High beam Relay from its spot and install the DTRL Relay in its (DTRL) spot. THEN you need to have a change made in the BCM. The country code needs to be changed from USA to Canada. Once...- al7fi

cold weather
My 03 LE came with a factory block heater (normal for all new cars in AK). We plug in below +20F primarily to help with air pollution to keep the feds off our back. The plus side is that the rig warms up much quicker and takes a lot of strain off the battery. I got mine in Jan 03 and it now has...- al7fi

Misfiring/Backfiring/Loss of Power/Something
Good possibility is a Crankshaft Position Sensor going/gone south. Had a similar problem with my 03, except my max speed was 44. Left alone for 30 minutes or so it would appear to run ok and then shazam and it is doing it again. Of course it was on a Sunday, so Monday I limp into my wrench...- al7fi

Go to post #16 under Day Time Running Lights for what has to be done. (my post). I have the DTRL working on my 03 Liberty. I got my relay from Rockauto on line( it is a specific relay, not just one that will fit). You insert the new relay and REMOVE the high beam relay. The BCM needs to have a...- al7fi
