so first off, i delayed posting this thread for allmost an entire week while searching, and just passively reading every no start/dead jeep thread i could find... still clueless....
so a little background, 90 xj, auto. had a weird no start about 2-3 weeks back, typical cps-esq problem, crank forever, no trying to start, no allmost starting, no nothing. had it towed home, but when i got home 4-5 hours later, it started up no problem. i fixed a faulty ignition relay (the thing your positive batery terminal gets distributed at, next to the relays on a renix), assuming that was a problem (had some loose wires at the distro bolt).
fast foward 2 weeks later, and it left me stranded again. did the cps in the street... nothing.
had it towed home again (really looking into a AAA membership at this point)
at this point
at this point, it appears i have neither spark nor fuel, i cant get the fuel pump to prime reliably.... it does it sometimes and not others, not EVERY time i turn the key to ON. but if i jumper b+ to the ballast resister, i get a constand hum of the pump running....
ignition coil has been swaped out, new cap/rotor, new cps
im stuck, i have no idea whats going on, and it needs to get smogged this month, and considering its a DD, and only the 12th... it needs fixing, i beg any renix freaks in ear shot to show some mercy and help...
