    Clutch fan contacted the radiator. Ideas?

    this happened to my xj recently. I inspected the motor mounts and they seemed fine too, the trans mount is a new poly performance piece. There are lots of little fasteners that hold the radiator in under the radiator header panel, plus some rubberized pads & locating slots in the bottom of the...

    A Pillar light mounts

    Professional body panel adhesive is a good choice for this type of thing. Just make sure you want those brackets there forever!

    Hood Vents -Pro's and Con's

    I wanted to add that I also have added the Le Baron hood vents and do feel like the engine temps are better managed as a whole.

So first of all jeep was made by American Motors - he had never heard of that. So right off the bat he thought I was trying...

    Starts, them dies

    bypassed mine for the same reason months ago. the stock resistor is 1.1ohm. the local parts store only had a 1.25ohm, and it caused fuel starvation. If you want to keep the resistor make sure you get one with the same impedance or you might get the same results I did. good luck...
