Aaron, that's the way that it's been for decades. Play for public performance, pay the royalties. Bar owners have tried for years to play their own albums/CDs, only to find out that they aren't allowed to play it for public performance without the royalties. One of my sisters used to own a Hallmark card shop, and almost had to break a couple of employees' fingers, who didn't understand they could play any CD they stocked for sale (as an advertisement) without royalties, but could not put their own CDs in the store system.
that's so retarded I'd probably just ignore the rule. How the hell are they gonna catch you, send hired goons into the store?
Copyright law is so complicated and full of BS gotchas. Frankly I usually swipe music via less than legal methods and if I like it, I buy a couple albums from the band, if I don't, I delete it. That is, when I don't just listen to it on youtube or pandora/last.fm.
Isn't the 96 ODBI? If so, that could cause an issue with an IDBII vehicle, right?
???????????????????????????????????????????????????
1. 96 is OBDII
2. You just gave 100% incorrect, confusing advise.
3. the year ranges various 4.0s will fit in has almost zero to do with the year ranges of the engine management systems and more to do with the exhaust systems and sensor change years. Even then, if you are suitably determined you can put any year 4.0 in any year XJ with any year engine management if you are prepared to do some custom fab or careful choices of parts to make it all match up.
kman, the answer is "it depends". federal/49 state or cali emissions 2000? If it is a cali 2000 with the pre-cats and multiple o2 sensors you can do it but will need to stick your head or preferably a good TUPY 0331 head from Odessa/ACH/etc on it, or get an adapter plate or do other customization. If you have a federal 2000 with no precats there should be a way to put a 7120/0630 headed 91-99 4.0 into it with only customizations to the exhaust system and some brackets to hold the coil rail, or convert to the viper coil pack like Talyn did. I think 85xjwoody got his working, not sure though, maybe he can give more details on this? Unless I only confused him or gave bad info when he was putting it together :shiver:
If that is a flexplate, which it almost sounded like, you can replace it with one off a 91 through 01 or just buy a new one. They suck to replace but IIRC you have a shop so it shouldn't be too bad.
If it isn't the flexplate, don't rev it till it blows or seizes, it will make you kick yourself pretty bad when you go to unbolt the torque converter from the flexplate and can't crank the motor over fully because it's seized or there are rods dangling everywhere.
