Hi there, I am wanting to remove a cylinder head without having to take off the crankshaft pulley, timing chain cover, etc. I was able to remove one at the junkyard by removing the timing chain guide (the wedge) allowing for removal of the camshaft sprocket from the chain. The bolt that was...

Um here's a theory if anybody wants to think it over. Not sure if plausible, but it kind of connects the dots at least. Say the exhaust valve in cylinder 1 stuck shut. Over time unburned gasoline throws back into intake and erodes plastic, making it thin enough for vacuum pressure created from...

Ok. So what's caused holes on *only one* of the ports on my intake(aside from me)? That's the part I'm trying to figure out. The holes are nearest to the engine. I'm not sure if antifreeze is a reasonable option, simply because I've been using mostly water after having had a head gasket-like...

I wanna say I needed a new intake manifold from the get go. On that cylinder, there were indentations leading to cracks only an excessively high vacuum pressure could create. As far as IAC goes I still need to check it - I'm not exactly sure where it is but I know I at least cleaned the sensor...

Warm stuff, emergency (food, water, layers) Check oil AAA Git on the road

At 155k, I'd say it'd be worth it if you remanned the engine yourself. Mines at 200k and I haven't had any transmission issues yet, but starting to wonder about the torque converter. But yeah, I mean it depends on the cost. I personally wouldn't spend more than $1000 putting a new engine in...

Replacing these regulators is a *tough* task, even for those of us who are able bodied. I've had two go out, and it is not a job I look forward to simply because of the finagling of the part iself, and the small space you have to work with. I'd recommend having it professionally done. Just my...

Yeah, I know. So to start off, my Jeep has been functioning terribly over the past year or so. It's had an ongoing issue where it won't idle and I have to apply gas + brake at the same time to keep it alive, which I thought was from a clog in the catalytic converter. I want to say that there...

Also I should note that in this situation, pumping fuel pedal, for whatever reason, has 100% effect on whether car starts or not.

I'm not sure where to start with engine running rich conditions, chicken or egg I'm not sure but misfires make me think that probably O2 sensors working properly, or at least they're showing correctly. Voltage low/high codes for O2 sensors indicate the output, not the input correct? It'd make...

I will totally check the PCV valve tomorrow, that's an excellent idea

Just wanted to keep this thread alive. So I had a guy come up to my car today, and he's like "You want me to save you a whole heck of a lot of effort?" and I'm like ".... Yes." And he looks me in the eye and says "Fuel Pressure Regulator". ASE certified tech, the guy honestly sounded...

Update Hey everyone, just an update - replaced spark plugs today which were fouled pretty good with carbon buildup over the past year (last replacement). Vehicle performance is significantly improved, although still issues. Car will stall on occasion now, gas mileage is back up to 15-17 mpg...

fuel injectors Removed fuel rail on my car for the first time, didn't spill gas everywhere (spilled a little bit, wiped it up with thick rag), replaced 2 fuel injectors on wrong bank side lol, managed to figure out how to remove stuck fuel injectors by being patient and using lots of WD-40...

Hey guys, Really appreciate your all's help with this one. I've been working at this thing for the longest time. Got an issue where the engine will stall at stop lights. Has been gradually getting worse. Car now nearly impossible to drive, stalls at all stoplights/stop signs/stops. Car is...

A 3" screen - with very spotty internet, after trying to detach my blower motor with no success, then somehow probe my still-attached blower motor with a multimeter face up in a tight space with very little access to the prongs Hence the frustration Yes, feel free to move this thread :help...

This is fantastic. Thank you

Excellent, thank you

See, no wonder... Most sites do not use their banner as a link to their home page. It's usually just a standalone banner. There should at least be a home page tab in there. Maybe shift the forums up to the top... you know. Like I'm sure it's nbd once you've been to the site, but for new...

Anybody know where I could find a PDF of wiring diagrams for an '05 Jeep Liberty Renegade?
