i noticed a loss when going to 31's. when i put on injectors from a local car here (holden commodore-uses a refined version of a buick 3.8) i regained my accelleration + a wee bit more (as measured against a mates stock xj). also bettered my mileage as transmission didn't have to do as much...

Hi mate, just ignore the wankers here... heaps of guys here in aus have gained about 50mm (2 inches) extra by getting 30mm x 6mm x 500mm steel (2 per seat). all you do is remove the seat/frame from car, separate seat from frame put steel on top of frame to mark mount holes with a sharpie...

have you tried fuel filter. i had same problems as you, my theory is this... clogged filter = low fuel pressure at low load = crappy idle. clogged filter at high load = fuel filter has internal bypass (correct me if i am wrong) which now lets engine have all fuel it needs.. i re-iterate...

i have a 96, auto 4.0 HO - 31's 3.55's i used to get get 12 Litres per 100 highway, 19-25litres around town. put in some Holden commodore injectors (engine based on your Buick 3.8 v6) and have dropped to 10L/100km highway and 16-18 town. even though they flow less fuel, they support higher...

Ah the beijing model, from what i understand a jeep in everything but name! Very WJ looking. I was hoping to se if someone has done the zj as i like the "Chisel" front shape, purely for aesthetics

Has anyone here heard of, or seen, an XJ with ZJ?G Grand front grill or panels to be different? I am toying with the idea...:cheers:

apologies, have still been on the case. there IS 12+v getting there, Australian delivered sensors have funny coloured wiring compared to yours, so i was checking the wrong wire:gonnablow both grounds good and resistance tests fine. stay tuned, i will next test the SIGNAL wire (the one i...

ok, replaced distributor housing as there is too much play anyway. problem not fixed. before i replace both O2's, i want to know if the Neutral safety switch can do this? i keep coming back to how the car runs sweet in gear under load at precisely 1250 rpm and above. cheers for the...

Really? rotor doesn't seem to hit and cps signal is sweet. if this is the prob, do i need to replace the whole unit? is there something i can rig up to run the engine for 5 minutes so i can confirm/eliminate? maybe the engine oil flush eliminated some crud, increasing play (did it at the...

how much side to side play is allowed for the distributor rotor/cam sensor shaft? mine seems to move about 3-6mm (sorry, don't know fractions of inches) and distributor seems to knock (tap) occaisonally.

1996 - changeover year, to make matters worse being an Australian car your passenger side is my drivers side! apparently here it is controlled by a "ASD" relay (PDC is different to yours) and also supplies to the other o2 sensor. I test swapped with another relay with no change. is there a...

OK Done, there is no 12v+ being supplied to the heater, only about 1-2 volts. where does this come from and is there a known issue. heater resistance is 6ohm BTW.

OK misfires after first 10 seconds from startup at all rpm's IN PARK AND NEUTRAL (no load?). if i left foot brake and put in any drive gear and rev it higher than PRECISELY 1250RPM, RUNS SMOOTH AS SILK. both conditions above when cold and warmed up. since replaced: injectors cap/rotor...

not just wiring to remember. the plug also needs to be able to handle the temps..
