    Trying to replace this screw / fastern clip

    Found out these things are called clip nuts. Couple different kinds but mine is the turret kind where there are a number of threads that secure the screw. Found lots of them by Doorman at Oreilleys. Only question now is...the other clip anchors with their screws still in place take a 8mm...

    Hesitant acceleration after stopping at a light

    '96 XJ w/ 186k miles here and I'm just starting to get a short hesitation to accelerate after say stopping at a stop light. It's only happening at like maybe one out of every 40 stops or so but it's getting frequent enough that I'm guessing it's gonna get worse over time. Typical behavior for...

    Replacing a metal brake line and flaring

    After consulting with my regular mechanics I just let them do it because the whole line really needed to be replaced. Peace of mind.

    Replacing a metal brake line and flaring

    I have a leak in the 3/16" metal brake line that leads from somewhere under the brake cylinder up front all the way back almost to the rear axle. The rearward 3 feet or so of the line is corroded and I'm hoping just to be able to replace that part of the line. I've got a piece of just straight...

    What hose is this?

    Best I've been able to narrow it down so far is that a parts guy at the local Chrysler dealership narrowed it down to Chrysler part number 4854149 but said they didn't have it. If you go to vpartsinc.com and put the number in they have it described as a vacuum fitting, but no picture, priced at...

    What hose is this?

    I broke a hose on the '96 XJ replacing my crankshaft position sensor. It's at the top of the engine all the way back to the firewall. This hose is made for heat. On the right side it is clamped onto a small metal tube that goes down and travels along with the fuel lines going all the way to the...

    knock knock

    What I'm hearing sounds exactly like what's in this video where the guy is fixing his loose flexplate bolt, so I'm going on the assumption that's what I'm dealing with... https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f51/how-fix-flexplate-knocking-125547/ As this just started would it do much harm to run with...

    knock knock

    96 XJ here, 180k 4.0. Recently I've had a repetitive knock sound show up. You don't hear it on a cold start but after it warms up there's a distinctive lower pitched knock with a frequency of about 10 times a second, at idle. Seems to be coming from the bottom of the car/engine as you can hear...
