97 ZJ 5.2 belt tensioner advice needed by J. Clarke[_2_]
This tensioner is the spring-loaded kind, not the kind where one applies tension manually and tightens a bolt. The serpentine belt slips on occasion. On inspection I find that the belt tensioner doesn't move freely--I can put a wrench on it and move it to any position and it stays there. ...

headlights - 2001 GC - pitted "inside" by ps56k[_3_]
Happen to be reading a thread about replacing the headlamp assembly on a 2001 GC. Ours look fine - not like the hazy ones in the TV commercials - BTW - how does that happen ? Anyway, ours have a different situation... some lens pitting ? I don't think they are pitting on the outside of the clear...

No offense to the fine engineers at Jeep by Lon
....after all they make vehicles that allow you to go offroad, but more importantly get back on road. But who, or what bean-counting genius thought a little rubber band inside a plastic plug was an adequate liquid seal for a connector stuck down on the bottom of the drive train where it...

Throttle Position Sensor and what I've learned by DougW[_2_]
Well, Normally I say the Idle Air Passage is the culprit for a rough idle, but actually it's only one of the problem areas. Seems the TPS can cause one helluva rough idle. Just replaced the one in my ZJ because of some rough idle and surging (downshift) on highway when letting off the gas. The...

TPS report by DougW[_2_]
Sorry, had to. :) Throttle Position Sensor. Code 24 for the ol beastie. Symptoms: Hesitation when coming to a stop and sudden downshifts (mostly on the highway) when you let off the gas. Followed the FSM and checked the units voltage. Didn't see any drops or "obvious" problems. But since I...

99 Wrangler Running Rough with AC on by Kevtrane
I have a 1999 Wrangler which normally runs great. I have been having a very intermittent problem where the motors starts to run rough, causing the Jeep to shimmy. I think that it is related to the AC and the problem seems to be more pronounced when the weather is extremely hot. Yesterday was a...

Head light Assembly for 2001 Grand Cherokee by Larry[_21_]
I am looking to replace the front head light assembly for both sides of my 2001 Grand Cherokee. The dealer quoted me a price of over $500 for each side. I went online and found some mail order headlight assemblies considerably cheaper; however, I am not sure about quality of the components. Can...

coolant overflow tank - how it works by ps56k[_3_]
Just doing the normal checking... with Chicago going to 100 - and had a question about the coolant tank - How does the coolant overflow tank work ? I mean - what makes the liquid flow out of the radiator and into the tank, and then - of course - what forces it back the other way ? -- / _/ _/ _/...

Head light Assembly for 2001 Grand Cherokee by Larry[_21_]
Hazy but not too bad so I am told. I wondered about how long the polishing lasts? I am thinking about it. The dealer will do it for $100 and an other local garage wants $136. Not sure about why the price difference. Larry
