Cherokee fuel pump

That's what I was afraid of. Thanks all.

Mic canic.

Would you please at least do some basic homework before coming on this
board and lying to people!

The 97 XJ indeed has a recall on the fuel sender. The recall info:

JEEP Model : CHEROKEE Year : 1997
Manufacturer : DAIMLERCHRYSLER CORPORATION

NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID Number : 97V194000

Recall Date : NOV 04, 1997
Component: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY

I bet you are lying about having to drop the tank too!

Anything to scam money out of the poor 'mark' eh?

Well, 'mic canic' is a liar about the recall and I bet about dropping
the tank too. My book shows the pump coming out from the front on all
the Cherokees now that I went and looked it up. Book could be wrong,
but...

It is easy to tell. Just go under and look at the front of the gas
tank. If you see the gas lines going into a circle shaped plate on the
front top of the tank, the pump comes out that way.

No Mike the tank has to come out. I have a 97 XJ, and that recall was
not in the range on my Vi. No. so Chrysler wouldn't pay for it. The
new sender comes with a new Gasket and new bolts for the tank straps.
The bet way I have found is to cut the old bolts with a Sawzall. Dave

Too bad the 97 Cherokee recall missed your VIN.

It would figure Chrysler wanting their 'mechanics' to make more money on
a common fix so they hid the pump. Anything to be able to charge more
for a repair eh. It was 'way' too easy to change the older pumps. Only
a half hour labor sitting in the driveway.

My book only goes up to 97 and doesn't cover those tank changes. That
is when Chrysler really started messing around it would seem eh.

hey i'm not a egotistical ass like you and i can say oops i made a mistake

now that i remember you don't have to totally drop the tank just angle it
one the right side to access the lock ring
now that i think about it i did very few xj's for the recall and tons of
tj's and zj's




i just love getting under your skin and it's so easy
