    Head Noise (video)

    Was the motor hot or cold when the video was taken? I didnt see the temp gauge in the video. Not to be an ass but are you sure that noise is from the valve train? you didn't say anything about diagnosing the noise. Using a stethescope or a tubeof some kind to hear through. Sounds alot like...

    Piston slap questions

    piston slap goes away when the motor is revved up regardless of a hot or cold engine. ie if you were to hold the the throttle slightly open after start up and not hear a knocking noise, but hear that same noise at idle that would be one way to confirm piston slap.

    97 cherokee TCU swap

    i ran a 97 tcu in my 98 for about a year and had zero issues. i was operating under the impression that the 98+ have different sensor arrangements than a 97. i didnt feel the swap would work because of the sensor arrangement, but low and behold about a year went by with zero issues.

    search around for the zj v8 tie rod upgrade. it is rediculously simple to do and the cost is minimal as well. i recently did this upgrade and have been very satisfied so far.

    does anyone have anything good to say about the RR steering?

    the rr setup is garbage. i ran this setup for 3 years. could not hold an alignment, had the biggest dead spot and the tre's would constantly wear out. for 75 bucks you could do the zj steering upgrade, which is what i just did, and be way happier. no dead spot, alignment is spot on and getting...

    No Overdrive & Check Engine Light is on ?

    cleaning the neutral safety switch and adjusting it is a good place to start, its free and takes a few minutes of your time, this may get you reverse and overdrive back, it did for me anyways. but your other two codes indicate a possible "no bus" and the tcu "trans control unit" not talking to...

    98 Runs like crap

    check the vac lines, could be a leak that appears after things warm up causing a rough idle? try cleaning the idle air controller, not really a bad thing to do anyways, it can cause idle issues if it is mucked up. maybe the ccv valves need to be changed or cleaned?

    98 Stumbling when cold

    I thinik I have found the issue. I was under the hood with the engine running and suddenly the EGR valve line (at rear of the valve cover with the line going to the intake manifold) went flat (vacume). I think the EGR is going on me...
