I might toss a aftermarket radiator in for next summers boat towing season!
Thanks for the feed back!
I have also replaced the fuel injectors which helped the idle roughness and fuel milage, but can't seem to find a cheap, (relatively speaking) way around the replacement of the converters.
The dealer wants around $450 for the 'Y' pipe and converters.
Any one have a source for new units? I don't mind welding them in the line if neccessary, but I would like to find something for less money.
Just a cheap b*****d at heart...
Do you think I need a new radiator? Have spent so much already and I love this Jeep and don't want to get rid of it! This has been the only problem we have ever had with it.
Thanks in advance!
Any help would be much appreciated
Write down the trouble code, could be more than one. Then sit down at your computer and do a search on each one. Several articles should pop up concerning the code/codes. If you have more than one code, look for a common thread. Good luck.
Thanks for any help

I just recently had my 95 Cherokee Emissions Tested and Inspected, It took some rear brake pads and some type of regulator swtich for the reverse lights malfunctioning. The mechanic also said that part, which was pretty expensive, could have been causing the hesitation in starting as well. I would turn the key and it would just whir for a moment and then not start. Try it again and then it normally would. So I think everything is all fine and fixed and now today at lunch I couldn't get the key lock off, the steering wheel froze. Finally I got it after ten minutes of wrangling with it.
But now my radio/clock, wipers and AC aren't working. And the day before that the ignition problem started again. Could the mechanic have not installed the part correctly, or is this something completely different? And should I make a point not to drive it until it's fixed?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
I know a guy that has a jeep and said it is normal but a low popping (almost a bang kind of noise) just doesn't sound normal to me? any thoughts? opinions?
thanks
What could the problem be? One mechanic told me it may be the brake line, however fluid comes out with no apparent problem when I disconnect the caliper. I have no problem pushing the piston back in.
Another mechanic said I should have replaced both front calipers instead of just the one, because the newer caliper may be getting more pressure. What should I do?
I don't think it really matters, but this is on a '91 Cherokee Laredo 4x4.
Does any of this ring true with you?
I noticed the fan starting to engage during the winter when i had the heater on. I originally thought it was the engine at high idle because it made no sense to me that the fan would engage during the winter. I also noticed that the same condition did not occur as often in the winter when i used the defroster. With the AC on during the summer the fan would engage if I happened to be at idle for not too long of a time.
Any advice/thoughts?
Thanks
Radiator dirty or blocked.
Coolant system needs flushed.
Mechanical fan clutch failure.
Temperature sensor no longer accurate (going bad or has become corroded).
Water pump not pumping.
Mechanical fan shroud missing (not likely)
I am also stumped as to why turning the heater on would cause the fan to turn on. Usually heater use helps cool the engine (essentually adds another radiator to the mix). I believe when you defrost, the A/C is powered and will kick on if the outside temperature is not too low.
I'd try replacing the temperature sensor. Maybe it's not giving a true reading because it's corroded. Perhaps using the heater somehow aggravates the condition (more flow to heater, less flow to sensor - higher reading).
Not sure any of this is helpful, but thought I'd offer a few.
Keep us posted.
My problem started after replacing the hub assembly. Original hub began to squeel so I replaced it. Once I put the first new hub in, the suspension pop began immediately. Returned the new hub for another new one and the popping went away for a few weeks but now it is back. Anybody have any ideas?
thanks
All the other gauges/RPM indicators work.
I have replace the speed sensor.
I have swapped out the dash control panel (speed/RPM/gauges)
I had a mechanic hook it up to his computer. He said he did not get anything.
Additional suggestions would be great.
Thank you
it is a 99 cherokee classic . automatic. 4.0 . with part time 4x4. yes it has trans drain plug
thanks again

I just noticed this was posted on Sunday. Any luck???
I have a 97 GC that is generating a fault code from the ABS computer as well. Did you replace it yourself or have it performed at the stealer? If you did it yourself, did you find a good source for the part?
Thanks a million!

For some reason the fan in my 98 cherokee only works on high. I pulled the dash apart thinking there was probably just a bad connection but everything seems fine. Im still digging in the garage for a tester to see if all the wires have power but I thought I would run it by you guys first.
Any thoughts?
Luther
Thx for any ideas.
