I just recently purchased a non-running 78 CJ5 missing a lot of stuff like the tailgate, doors, top, seats. A lot of floor rust and body damage, 258 with what seems to be a 3-speed, and six inches of silt inside from flooding in hurricane Irene. Windshield frame and dash are good… Original plan...

I currently have a 4.0 engine that just crapped out on me. Rod knock and is looking like an engine rebuild. I don't want to sell the car because I finally finished the interior before competition safety requirements. I'm trying to do rallies, unconventional already I know. Due to class rules...

I have been grappling with this issue for quite a while. Fully stumped at this point. There have been idle issues with this jeep since the get go. A little back story. This jeep sat for 10 years not moving. I replaced, fuel pump, tank, filter and ran marvel oil and epr through it to get it...

I'm going to start this thread off with stating that I know the 2.5 isn't a powerful engine, and if I wanted power than I agree that literally any other engine would be a better candidate. I also want to say I know this topic has probably been beaten to death, but not in the way I am going to...

Thanks in advance for any help. I have a 2002 2.5L TJ with a 5-speed. I had to disassemble the intake and exhaust manifolds to address an exhaust leak. Upon re-assembly, I tried to plug the fuel supply line into the fuel rail with the quick-connect fitting. It won't connect! If I look in...

Alright, to bring everybody up to speed real quick. I just bought a 95 YJ 2.5, 5spd less than a month ago. This is the first jeep I have owned. I've read countless specs, forum threads and just about anything else you can name that could possibly give me the information I'm looking for and still...

Hey everybody, I'm new to the forum and new to owning a Jeep. I Recently bought a 95 Wrangler YJ and from my understanding it has a Dana 35 rear axle with 4.10 gears and a Dana 30 front axle. I am unsure of the gear ratio of the front axle. After several days of research I have learned that the...

Hello JF! I have been working on my 88 2.5 YJ over the past year and actually have it running pretty good! It had sat for about 4 years and a friend's front yard and he finally sold it to me. I've replaced the clutch (external slave conversion), 2.5 lift, trans drop, 1" brown dog motor mount...

Howdy everyone, I had an account on here 5-6 years ago and failure to access resulted in a new account. I am the second owner of this 1990 YJ 2.5L, got it with 89XXX miles and it now has 144XXX miles. It is no longer my DD, so I have the ability to now work on it more extensively. This thing has...

1990 with new 2.5 Crate Engine from Advance Auto with new Exhaust - Ran great for about 7000 miles. Still cranks good, idles great, and runs ok for around town (low speeds and low gears). - BUT now has NO power at highway speeds. I have to shift down to 4th gear for any kind of hill and...

Has anyone that owns a YJ with a 2.5 engine installed a JET chip package onto the MPU/CPU yet ( Mod# 99313 ) and if so did it or did not help one or the other as to mileage and / or horse power....any response is welcome Thanks.

I own a 2000 wrangler with a 4 inch lift and 33's. I purchased the vehicle and have never done any serious off road. That will finally change when my wrangler meets mud this Thanksgiving. I have purchased 4.88's, a trutrac for the rear and an Elocker for the front, so I think that will be a nice...

Hi all, Rebuilding a 2.5l and noticed that the 3rd cam bearing (from the front) has 2 oil holes but the bore only has one oil passage. At which position does the second oil hole go? I found one thread on the forum asking this very same question and the only answer given was that it shouldn't...

Hi guys! First post. I just bought my first vehicle/Jeep and it has a few problems (the body, interior, etc. is in great shape, just needs a little engine work) and I want to see what you guys think could be causing them. 1) When we first got it a few days ago, it had a rough idle and and the...

Hello, I have a 1995 Jeep Wrangler YJ, and I wanted to put a 4 in. lift on it, and it needed me to say what kind of rear axle I have, and I'm not sure what kind I have nor how to find it. So if anybody could help that would be amazing, thanks!!

Hi I just bought a 1987 jeep Comanche, has a 2.5 TBI, automatic trans. Got a used motor cause original was toast. Only difference with the used was it was manual trans, so changed flywheel. Got everything in, all lines, connections correctly installed. Problem is I'm not getting spray from the...

Hey, thanks for checking out the thread. I bought a 97 TJ a year ago and am researching lift kit options. My Jeep came with Bilstein shocks - F4-BE5-2442-H0 Typ4 up front, BE5-2443's in the rear. I've heard the rough country shocks are cheap aren't the best. My question is can I keep my...

Hey all.... Been many years since I've been on here... Previous frame off rebuild/restore of an '82 CJ-7. Having stated that, I'm pretty familiar with SWB Jeeps in general. YJ I'm really near to bringing home is (unfortunately) a 2.5 / I4, 121K miles, looks to have a mild lift with 31's or at...

Okay, I've read just about ALL of the posts on this issue, and here's what I've got/ replaced/ done this far..... Was running funky, code was P1367 (something close to that, but it threw the crank or cam sensor code) so I replaced them. (OEM) Didn't change anything, still ran crappy, but I delt...
