    Making Ms Liberty mine thread

    Is there a place that will take my injectors and clean them and flow test them to make sure they are all flowing evenly? If so, got a link? Also, what does something like that cost? New injectors are about $60 each locally.

    Compression test was good. I did that after the big rig ordeal. It was doing it before the big rig ordeal also. It was just very noticeable during that situation. It really feels like it is not getting enough fuel, and is starving under a heavy load. Oh well... Let's see what the Lucas Oil...

    Engine only has about 5000 miles on it. Spark plugs are only a few thousand miles old, due to other issues during the engine swap, i swapped them for another set. I gapped and put them in myself, and are ngk cheapies, just like it calls for.

    I just added some Lucas Oil Injector cleaner for this tank, I'll look into the techron stuff too. Is that a Chevron product? As for the tranny, it don't matter whether the OD is on or off. Its mid power band and only under a load. I had it really do it to me when merging onto the freeway...

    Making Ms Liberty mine thread

    I know its been a while since browsing the ol' KJ forum, but I thought I would stop in and give an update on my Liberty. The only thing I have done lately is drive it, drive it, drive it, and today, because of all that driving, I changed the oil. I installed a new Bosch filter and Mobile1 FULL...

    Making Ms Liberty mine thread

    I finally got around to writing about what I did on this past Friday to Ms. Liberty. I went and shopped around the local parts houses to find a modestly aggressive muffler which would improve the exhaust flow, while maintaining a good amount of back pressure, so my low end would remain as good...

    Thinking about changing out the exhaust. Looking for something with a little more flow as well as something that will give it a good throaty sound. What would you guys recommend? I would like to do it this weekend.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    But why wouldn't it shift until I let up on the gas?

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Does anyone ever have a problem under hard acceleration with up-shifting? Accelerator floored from a stop, what RPM does your jeep shift at? Keep it floored and check. Does it go to 5500-5750 before it shifts from 2nd to 3rd? Do you have to let off before it will shift? If not, why does mine...

    wont upshift under hard acceleration

    Weirdest thing ever. I was out of town this past week. On Wednesday, I left the hotel and got on the freeway. Besides the inclined on ramp, the freeway goes up hill too, which creates the same scenario that BYJimmy has described. My 02 3.7 with the same trans did the same thing. Mine went to...

    No, just 4 holes in the dipstick. No writing. What is the true capacity of the trans? I know it will be more than a regular fluid change, because of the radiator swap at the same time, but I sure don't want to overfill it.

    Been a rough few weeks at work, so I haven't had time to get on here and offer any updates. I told you guys I had to replace the radiator on the what did you do to your Jeep today thread I think. I also serviced the tranny, changed both filters and replaced the fluids on the 3rd I think. That...

    engine maintenance light

    Didn't I say that it threw a whole bunch of codes? Also, what are the steps of problem solving? 1) Gather Intel. 2) Check the most common culpritt that your Intel points to, starting with the cheapest component first, or the component you have experienced similar trouble with in the past...

    engine maintenance light

    Run test is what I said. The initial part of the testing process is to pull the codes. In this situation there were only two parts of the test. Pull codes, then check the gas cap.both of which were done by the Autozone guy. He had me check the cap, but it was his suggestion to do so. I don't...

    engine maintenance light

    Yes, mine just had check engine light last week. I went to AutoZone and had them run test. They found a bunch of codes, and the guy turned and asked if my gas cap was tight. I opened the door and the cap fell off in my hand. I put it on correctly and have had no more errors. I did have to...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Yes, your boat weighs more than mine. Nice setup you got there. Those smokercraft boats are built well. I'll try to geta pic of mine up here soon.
