  1. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    So first off, my Jeep is a 98 Model TJ with a 4.0 in it. I’ll try to keep this brief. So about a week back I went trail riding with my Jeep. I had a few drinks and was having a good time. Because of this I didn’t notice that when I was going down a hill and hit a bush pretty hard. The coolant...
  2. JK Wrangler Technical Forum
    So, I had an oil light come on intermittently and then it started getting to be more often. Then I thought my power steering was going out due to a chirping kind of noise. I replaced the power steering pump and the issue remained. During testing I thought I heard a faint tap/tick so I stopped...

  4. XJ Cherokee Technical Forum
    This is for a '93 XJ Sport with the 4.0L engine at 270K miles or so. I had the distributor out the other day to replace the pickup coil (AKA camshaft position sensor) due to a crank but no start situation. I had it all put back together and took it for a 15 minute test drive, working it hard...
  5. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    Hi Everyone, New to the Forum, but am happy to see all the great info here! I have replaced the rear main seal and will be installing a new oil pan gasket and pan. With all the work it took to get to the rear main seal, I figured it might be good to replace the oil pump while at it. Is this...
  6. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    Recently while idling my oil gauge will occasionally read 0 psi it is not a constant thing. My Jeep is a 97 Wrangler Sport automatic tranny, with the in line 6. A friend of mine suggested replacing the oil pump sending unit first before replacing the oil pump itself. My two questions are one...
  7. Jeep CJ Forum
    Hey guys I've had this CJ7 for about 1 year now and I've been finally digging in and rebuilding as much as I can figure out with that Hanes manual. Now I think I've got the engine running nice and pretty sounding but its time to work on cosmetics. I have a bit of a rust problem from the previous...
  8. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    I have an 01 TJ with 132000 miles that I bought used a few months ago. It dose not smoke and runs very well. Once it has warmed up upon starting, it takes a few seconds for the oil pressure to build. It is just long enough for the warning beeper to start. Also, rarely after sitting for as little...
  9. ZJ Grand Cherokee Forum
    I've got a massive leak going on and the other night it hit the point where my ZJ was pissing a trail of oil. I've had a small leak for quite some time (the entire time?) and I'm pretty sure the massive fluctuation in temperature this past week finally f-ed the seal to death. (75+ this week...

    The oil pressure measuring unit/point is at the front, bottom of the block just down from the actual oil pump - how do I know if I'm getting adequate oil pressure at the top/rear of the block?
  11. YJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    I replaced the oil pump because I had low oil pressure..... So I started it drove it around still had the exact same oil pressure as before. at about 20. Then it warmed up now its at about ten. I reused the same oil that was in it. It looked a little thin. But anyways im thinking I need a oil...

    Long time lurker, first time poster.... Let me start by saying while I was a helicopter mechanic in the Marine Corps, I never before this worked on my Jeep before... I have a 1996 Grand Cherokee V8. Here is the progression to where I am... 1) I start intermittently losing oil pressure on the...
  14. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    After searching the threads, I found one that was close but not quite my deal. At random times (it's happened after starting the motor hot or cold) the oil pressure will fail to come up until I throttle up a little. It will come up from 0 after about 20 or 30 seconds and run fine. It runs...
  15. ZJ Grand Cherokee Forum
    After it warms up a bit. I was planning on changing the oil pan gasket and the rear main. I saw this on craigslist. New Mopar Performance high volume Jeep 4.0/4.2 liter oil pump. While I'm in there I could do this, but is this the right pump for my 95 4.0. Is there any reason why I should not...
  16. KJ Liberty Forum
    I have a '02 Sport 133k miles. The oil was just changed and is full as there are no leaks and it does not burn any. This just started after my oil change. In the last week the oil lamp comes on after I have driven about 5-7 miles on the freeway and then exit to city driving and every time I...

    As mentioned, drop the pan and plastiguage the mains and rods. If clearances are 3 thousandths or less, your problem is the cam bearings.

Ive been told that I need to replace the oil pump, but online i notice that there is an oil pump screen...

  20. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    So I've been working on removing my oil pan to put in a new oil pump. for the past 6 hours I have been trying to remove one bolt from the exhaust where it connects to the manifold. I've used an impact gun, breaker bars, you name it. the bolt is about 1/4 of the way out. I have two of the four...
