How do you know it's clogged? One would think you would get a CEL from the downstream O2 sensor if it is.

I saw this tool reviewed on Eric the Car Guy. Hard to justify the price, unless you have a shop, but will make bubble flares: http://www.eastwood.com/professional-brake-tubing-flaring-tool.html

I had three Broncos that had problems with the slip yoke binding. One way to tell is when you brake semi-hard and the back end comes down after a full stop you'll hear and feel a pop. Ford started coating the splines with Teflon, it worked for a while but would come back. I keep mine clean and...

I need some help zeroing in on a problem with my passenger window not working. Yesterday the wife and I were out and her window would not go back up either with her switch or mine (driver master). I tried the child safety switch on and off. We had to drive home with the window all the way...

Thanks, after a tuneup I was playing with my scanner checking fuel trim and O2 sensors and since everything looked OK I wondered if maybe the CTS was out of range I might get a boost in MPG; no big deal though, like you say I'll have a known good spare in my toolbox.

My specs are: 29,330-35,990 ohms @ 32F 640-720 ohms @ 212F

'97. Thanks, I did find the factory specs and the new NAPA sensor looks OK.

Thanks, I'll do the same tomorrow morning and see if anyone else has any input.

Do a search on removing the shim(s) in the clutch, this may be all you need to do since it's blowing cold.

Since my XJ has over 140K I thought I would replace my coolant temp sensor and in the process do a head to head test with a NAPA Echlin premium sensor. I'd like some input regarding the numbers. The Jeep runs fine, except for crappy gas mileage. I haven't driven it yet because my steep...

I used NAPA seals for my D30. When I install oil seals and they have a double lip I always pack grease between the lips because when you slide the shaft in it wipes most of the grease off the shaft. I cleaned my tubes with a rag soaked with mineral spirits tied to a rope and me and my helped...

You might want to do a search on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/

Last year I had a gradual loss of power and MPG. I didn't think of calipers sticking/dragging because there was no pulling on braking. After a lot of trouble shooting it turned out that both calipers were dragging equally. I had deep grooves in the knuckles where the pads rest. I welded them...

Does your rig with California emissions have a evap canister on the firewall? They're supposed to pull fumes from the tank and add it to the intake to be burned. I'm wondering if it's pulling liquid gas and dumping it into the intake. I would think there is some kind of check valve to prevent...

It sounds like what you're describing is Evaporator Freeze Up. Ice forms on the evaporator which prevents air flow, shutting down the vehicle allows the ice to melt and the system works again until it freezes again. My '97 FSM states that the compressor should engage/disengage no more than...
