As far as I know, you cannot test an O2 sensor. If I'm wrong, hopefully someone will chime in and correct me. I'd love to have that little piece of knowledge stored away.
Your high idle could be nothing more than a vacuum leak.
I have the classic problem of oil leaking from the rear main seal. My husband took it to his mechanic (a bozo) to have it fixed but the repair was not made properly so it still leaks. Other than that my "92" runs great, it could use something for extra power though. I want to keep it because I love it, he wants to get rid of it because of the rear main seal problem. In your opinion could it be fixed or should we consider his option of selling it?
Oh and thanks for the heater help, it was the fan motor.
Thx,

Thanks

Do a lot of research on the lift height you will need to clear 31" tires. I've been told 31's are the maximum you can run without trimming the fenders. Also, I'm assuming you will not mount those 31's on the factory rims. They have too much backspacing and will cause the tires to rub in a turn.
A shift kit couldn't hurt. Mine could use one even with the factory 225's on it and 3.55 gears. I don't have any recommendations on lifts as mine isn't lifted. Yet!
I had a 93 cherokee sport 4wd that had 212,000 on it when I bought it and it ran sweet until I sold it at 245,000. I only had to put on new tires and a new power steering box. It had only routine maintenance done to it. This thing was the poster child for daimler chrysler. I bought a 99 last year and have had nothing but good luck with it. I gave my 93 to my little brother and he never checked the oil for a year. One day I went to change the oil and it was running on 1 qt. This thing was unreal. Good luck with your Jeep man
When I get to about 25 mph. my Jeep begins to make this High pitched buzzing, squealing noise. When I slow down, the noise slows down as well. It sounds as if the noise is coming from something that rotates, or from something that is vibrating slower at slower speeds and faster at faster speeds. The noise is coming from underneath the vehicle and seems to be louder on the passenger side, but it's hard to tell, because it's hard to pinpoint the noise when it only begins at about 25 mph.
Everything is working well, no problems. I was wondering if the recall for the heat shield that we had a couple of years ago could be the culprit. Perhaps it's come loose and is vibrating. The Jeep is maintained on schedule. Our mechanic checked the odometer cable and says that's fine.
Any ideas out there? It's really embarassing to drive around making such a noise. Thanks.
Thanks
If it is stuck in fwd then that would explain the gas mileage prob but if it is just the light staying on maybe it's not registering as disengaged.
try changed the fuel filter
Thanks.

Forgot to tell you I think I have the factory tow package. Also would like to pick up a shop manuall. But don't find them on ebay. Any help there?
Thanks again

Is this a common problem with Jeeps? And is there any way to get the factory to pay for a new paint job? Four and a half years and 50000 seems unacceptable for paint to be bad!
Any help would be appreciated. Other than that, I love the Cherokee!
I just picked up a VERY Cherry 97 Lincoln Towncar with only 71,000 miles. The Original owner traded it in for a new one to the Dealership where ALL The service was done. The point to all this is that now the Lincoln will be daily driver ( 100 miles each way to work)and I can work on the jeep. So If I come up with anything I'll let you know also.

came on so i replaced the alternator but when i started it
the alt light was still on so i disconected the battery
terminal to see if it was charging,it was. "any suggestions :confuse:
I recently bought a 98 jeep cherokee and have been having a reoccurring problem. In first gear going to take off and up to 20-30 mph the jeep almost skips or refuses to go. There is a cutting out if you will in the gas. In order to go you have to feather the gas until it catches. If you keep the gas press you can here a popping noise in the front end. When your stopped in idle the engine will idle rough then rev up hard then return to normal idle. The cutting out does not happen in the higher gears. The O2 sensors have both been replaced.( when idleing the engine light comes on and its the o2 sensor code, eventually going away ) The fuel pump has been replaced. The throttle control switch and Idle air control have been replaced. The throttle body has been replaced. I had the computer upgraded. I've run injector cleaner through a number of times. I have changed all plugs wires cap and rotor even battery. I NEED HELP !!!!!!! I see that other people have the same problem but no one has found the cure. I need a maricle ....
I now notice it in all gears not as bad but still there
Keep us updated.
