Hello all,
I am new this this form since I just purchased a "84 Cherokee with V6, 2.8L engine. I am having issues with this engine that I cannot resolve. I did a search and found 1 thread but it didn't help much....Here is the story..
While driving this vehical home Friday night, the engine started to run very rough..Just to satisify myself, I went and replaced the plugs, wires, cap, rotor, air filter, fuel filter and PCV. Pulled the AC pump(previous owner said it was frozen and did not work) and put it asside. After installing the new parts, the engine won't start, won't even fire...I checked, rechecked and rechecked again for Spark(got it at all plugs), Compression(160 reading on 1-5 cylinders, 6 at 120), Fuel dump into Carb is occuring, Timing is maybe 2 degrees out of spec(can't believe it won't even fire this close). I am basically stumped as to why this has happened..Does anyone have any simular experience with this issue? Any ideas?
Thanks
Michael
