What did you do to your jeep today?

My solution would be a welder and a nut.

Failing that, put a round nursert in its place. Tack 2 or 3 spots around the perimeter and Bob's your father's brother.

Was going to TS the 'no high speed fan run' condition in the Jeep, but got busy working on the fridge. I believe the defrost control unit (electromechanical, no computer!) has gone south. It keeps freezing up the evap core in the freezer, and losing circulation to the fridge, so you have a freezer that's - 20F, and the fridge is 50 degrees (due to no circulation since everything is frozen up). Defrost heater metered out to 35 ohms (should be 20-50 so that's perfect) haven't been able to meter out the defrost t-stat but it looks fine (which tells us absolutely nothing).

I replaced the defrost timer with this unit, but there were no instructions.

Did some research and it sounds like I have the black wire in the proper place now. We shall see. If anyone is an appliance repairman I'm all ears.

I did the spark plugs today.

They all look worn out but identically so. This is good. No cylinder is out of whack.

I always use copper core NGK’s and replace them every 30,000 miles. The part number is on the box.

Quick question.

You can see nearly all the engine wire looms have disintegrated again. The replacement loom available from the auto parts stores just does not last in the heat of the engine bay. Does anyone know of a brand of wire looms that will last more than a year?
