    '93 Bucking/Missing When Warm

    According to the Haynes manual ( I think that's where I read it), there is no adjustment on the '93s. I saw no way to adjust it, either. Two screws and a plug and your done. ??? -Louis-

    '93 Bucking/Missing When Warm

    O.K., a little background. I was given (Oct. 05) this '93 Cherokee Sport with the 4.0 and 5spd manual because it wouldn't start for the previous owner and he did not want to deal with it. I replaced the CPS and have been driving it ever since. However, the weather has been cool to cold for...

    rough start/rattling

    An even more dumberer question about alternators

    An already loose alternator belt can be further overpowered by a reving engine and the alternator pulley won't significantly speed up and may even slow down from what it was at idle. That said, with a good fully charged battery, it still shouldn't sputter just because the alternator isn't...

    '91 XJ w/200K miles...?

    Yeah, check out Craigslist...that's why I'm here. :D I just picked up my '93 a few days ago. The guy said he would give it to me if I left him the wheels and tires so he could use them on his other Jeep, or I could give him $250 for the whole package. I gave him the $250! It's a 4.0L 5 speed...
