"Fine... I'll do it myself."
I have devoted myself to making tutorial videos mostly focusing on Jeep related subjects, but I'm not opposed to doing something else. The idea with these tutorials is to make comprehensible, encompassing, understandable and direct knowledge-sharing presentations that don't have any extra fluff, get to the point and otherwise remain helpful above all else. If you have any questions about anything in any of my videos, just leave comment and ask. As long as you're not rude and angry, the worst possible outcome is me not knowing the answer. Feedback is incredibly appreciated, as are video requests. D wrdvw wkhq, wr ulvlqj deryh pb svbfkrorjlfdoob dexvlyh ha, and I'll see ya in the next one.

Jeep Cherokee: Heat Soak & Vapor Lock Explained (Cylinder 3 Misfire, Rough Warm Start) ['00-'01 XJ]
On 50-State equipped 2000 and 2001 Jeep Cherokees, Heat Soak is a somewhat prevalent issue especially in warmer climates. If your engine runs rough on warm starts, you have a random cylinder 3 misfire code, or it fails to even stay running after recently being shut down, here are a handful of methods to fix the problem.

Do you happen to remember where you purchased your parts or which manufacturer you went with?
@@user-mn7go1qt7r I believe it was 1A auto because they have a full kit. They weren't exactly the highest quality parts though and I did get death wobble like 2 years later
What about wrapping Exhaust all the way up to the intake, manifold properly be good idea
@@elibrown8539 Yes that's a good one, probably the best solution as it keeps the intake air colder too
Buying Cold air intake. yeah got it
Loved the humour in this thanks for the help!
I have some pitting between cylinder 3-4 and 4-5 on the left of the block, while facing it from the front looking into the engine bay. There is also some on the back right corner. Do you think I need to smooth these out or fill with JB weld? Some have told me it’s fine and just put the gasket and new head on. I can feel the areas with my finer tips, everything else is very smooth. Thoughts on this? Also, thanks for the amazing content! I love the all your videos!
@zachschlachter6185 the correct thing to do is get the block resurfaced at a machine shop, or try that yourself with power tools. I don't know if JB weld is a good idea, I also don't know if the pitting is bad enough to worry about
@@WAEMIDIVthanks, it doesn’t seem that bad, but it’s the first time I’ve done something like this, so learning as I go and from your videos. I’ve tried to sand it with the 220 grit like you used, but it’s been very slow in those sections and I’m not sure I’ll ever get it completely smooth that way. Your video is great and thanks for replying!
@@zachschlachter6185 try using a more gritty sandpaper like 80 or 100 for those particular areas, and finish it off with 220
What band and song is the music ?

I wouldn’t give you two cents for the select a trac transfer case they aren’t good for anything the constant viscosity joint or coupler in it fails all the time it’s not if it’s when just take it out toss it and install a transfer case that ha 2wd 4hi and 4 low and be don’t with it!!! The rest of them aren’t worth two cents I have no idea why they even come up with the junk!!!
@richard6606 You're thinking of the NP249 in the Grand Cherokee. The NP242 has a differential in it that uses real gears, where the 249 has that viscous coupling that always dies
@@WAEMIDIV that’s the same as the so called full time four wheel drive
@@WAEMIDIV the ones that say 4 hi full time and 4 low are the same as the 249
@richard6606 no, even in the Grand Cherokee there was an option between the NP242 and the NP249 in many years. The 249 is AWD only, with just low and high range, that's the one with the viscous coupling that always fails. It is not available in Cherokee XJs. The 242 has AWD and part time, it uses a center differential, and is available in both the XJ and ZJ/WJ. Look up the Novak guides on these 2 entirely different transfer cases
@@WAEMIDIV the full time selection isn’t it the one that moves power around to the wheel that slips from what I’ve read it’s basically the same as the awd
Thnx 4 da vid!👍

Thats a nice looking tree
19:19 My 2000 Classic only has two vacuum lines here. Took it off a while back and don't remember it being capped. Can anyone confirm wether or not I'm missing a line. I cannot find anything that goes there. Thanks!
@tmmyjay The front line is for the EVAP system which is only on California Emissions equipped vehicles, which your Jeep may not have. If there's no vacuum line, there should just be a cap on it. If you can't find a cap, just use some tape that won't melt
@@WAEMIDIV Thank you! The Jeep was in ca before I bought it, but there's just nothing that I can plug in to that front port. My Son has a 2001 and the tube that's plugged into his does not exist on my XJ. I'll cap it and hope for the best.
Dude your my hero keep up the amazing work
I’m confused, my 98ZJ has the 231 T-case and it is AWD. I am swapping in a 242 from junkyard that shows to be a 4WD. Completely opposite of your saying???
@@80camaroguy10 the NP231 is not AWD. The NP242 is, but it has both capabilities
I used to watch this in 2020
I have a 2.5 motor, ax5, and transfer case out of my 1988 MJ if anyone is looking for these. All work great motor only had 152k on it

"I literally don't give 2 shits." Same bud, same.
As soon as you poured locktite over the studs AFTER the nuts were on, that's when I tuned out. That's NOT how you use locktite.
@marklinder9085 I know the camera perspective made it seem like I was a dumbass, but the nuts were only on by a few threads, leaving exposed threads behind them, which is what the locktite went on. I am fully aware it does nothing if you put it on top of things.
10:41 i just replaces the cracked curvy bent jeep hose (elbow thing) with a piece of strait hose and works fine edit; oh yea, you figured that out... but thank you for all of your videos!
Just acquired a 99 five speed 4x4 with the 4.0. love it and hoping it lasts me a lifetime.
I love your videos and look forward to anything new regarding Jeep XJs. You’re amazing, please keep them coming. Nice job
I’ve personally never had this issue at all or even overheating i always hear a lot about overheating on this engine but I have it on 4.5lift on 33x12.5R15 with auto trans and I do drive it heard especially on the expressway and never had overheating issues
And as far as fuel I use Non-ethanol since I have a gas station down the road that provides non ethanol
My first vehicle is a xj and I still have it a 96 2 door 5 speed with the 4.0 and in high school I stumbled upon a picture of the Comanche started looking them up and now I’m buying one in Wisconsin 😂
Luckily catch cans exist
Thanks for the help! Always enjoy the videos 👊🏽
I have a 97 with a new radiator and heater core. Driving down the road it never gets heat soak but when i stop or when i offroad, its been really bad. I tried the heat sheild and it helped some but not much. I got the fan override switch and hood vents that i need to install. I am hoping this will solve the issue.
13:22
Lmao the spongebob ending 😂
Well that was a easy fix😂😂
Great video, lots of good info here! My 2001 developed heat soak AFTER installing a banks torque tube header and new CARB walker pre cats. No idea why that seemed to make it hotter than the cheapo ebay header and old cats. I even started stumbling while parked and idling for long amounts of time (damn popeyes drive thru!!) But I eventually wrapped the fuel supply line and did the fan switch which "cured" it. I get a lot of concerned comments from friends and passerby's when I park and have the loud ass fan on but at least it works!
Interesting video, I have a 1994 Jeep XJ Sport and so far I have not had any problems with overheating, after putting the electric fans directly to the battery with a relay And it turns on with the key, while with the aw4 transmission I have not had temperature problems either.
That fuel chart is so real, I can only attest for two of them but I have noticed when I get the Valero I have more instances of bad heat soak as compared to Sunoco, Sunoco I barely have issues, when I do have you soak I just push the pedal a couple of times to force more new fuel into the fuel rail and that seems to fix the problem faster, also great finally seeing this mod in "person" technically, I always have trouble comprehending diagrams and implementing them to the actual thing, being able to see both really helps me and I might actually do this mod.
miss those prices
@jacob7007 one of the very few benefits of IOWA lol
Great video sir
Keep up the great content! Can you get the high idle switch to work on a manual swapped XJ?
No, that's what my second toggle switch on the dash used to be for, but the manual ECM simply doesn't have the programming to understand what "extended idle" means. I've tried to wire it up anyway but it just doesn't do anything. ):
@@WAEMIDIV Thank you for the follow up, I can give up on it now. Much appreciated.
This is actually why I 2.5L swapped my XJ
chad move
Thanks for your video, I’m in Arizona the weather here gets into the 3 digits plus. I honestly have to say I have never had a heat soak issue, but then I do have a 99 XJ.
@drgil65 yeap I've never seen it happen on the older ones, I've only heard alleged stories of it
It has happened to me once. I was in Wickenburg AZ in 90 degree weather. Was rock crawling uphill slowly for about an hour before I shut off the XJ for about 5 minutes to find out how I was turning around and getting back. Turned it back on and I had heat soak. It’s a ‘98 auto with hood spacers but after about an hour of the rock crawling the temp was creeping up around 225 when I shut it off, knowing the XJ I’m sure it got even higher. My fan clutch and cooling system have seen better days though so it’s not too surprising.
I’ve got the e fan switch and heat shielding on my 2000. It wasn’t until I wrapped the fuel line in the heat shielding also that my heat soak completely went away. That fuel line runs right next to the exhaust manifold, so all the fuel in there would turn to vapors very quickly.
that's also a good idea, I haven't ever seen that done. I think I'll do that
Fun fact, a lot of old tractors have reverse flow engines, to the point that some of them have the intake and exhaust manifold cast as one unit. I have a 1923 Mack truck that has coolant plumbed through a jacket inside the intake manifold, for the express purpose of (as stated in literature for the truck) preheating the fuel-air mixture for 'Maximum efficiency'. Now, this was in part due to lower quality fuels in 1923, but that still makes me chuckle every time I think of it.
Ah yes, "wet manifolds" they call them, my white Comanche also had a coolant line through the intake with that same purpose. On carbureted or TBI engines, where fuel has to travel through the manifold, it helps it not condense on the walls inside of it, and remain an atomized mixture. Very interesting stuff
That may have been the effect that it had, but the pamphlet clearly states that it preheats the air-fuel mix for better efficiency, which to my understanding isn't how that works. I'm sure it does help with what you mentioned, whether by design or happy accident, since there's over a foot of updraft tube between the carb and the intake manifold. And I really shouldn't be surprised that AMC was borrowing design features from 1920s industrial trucks, should I?
well think, technically, when fuel *isn't* condensing on the walls of the manifold, more of it is reaching the engine and actually being burned, which does mean it's more efficient than it otherwise would be
I suppose you're right, I'll give the Mack engineers the benefit of the doubt, and chose to think that that was their intent, not 'More heat= More better". Then again, it's a 255 inline four that supposedly made forty horsepower brand new, I think that torque was a little higher on their priority list than efficiency.
Too bad you cant just get rid of the two pre-cats.....
@danhambrick6331 now that is an interesting prospect I have been tossing around an actual full conversion to a federal emissions setup, including an ECM reprogram and wiring harness and everything to remove the pre cats in a "factory" way, but that's pretty low on the priority list
Good info. I didnt realize that some 2000s and all 2001s had dual cats near the manifold.
@AAB371 yeap only XJs sold in certain states during 2000 would have the extra emissions stuff unless otherwise personally ordered, those states were California, New York, North Carolina and maybe like 3 others. For 2001, the dual cats became standard
Hey man! Just swinging by to thank you for all your tips in previous vids. Girlfriend and I drove from the Chicagoland area to LA. We are currently headed back but got a busted TPS mid way through the mountains of CO. You mentioned in previous vids to always carry spare sensors and thank god I did. 10 minute repair in a Taco Bell parking lot and we’re back on the road. If you’re ever in the area I owe you one
Unexpected and welcoming video. I enjoy seeing these types of random trips people take. I’m in the northeast, never been out west. The emptiness out there seems like a beautiful experience.
92-94 Octane gas has 10% Ethanol in it not, 0% REC-90 is the only non-Ethanol gasoline
oh I see.
@@WAEMIDIV yeah I always thought that 93+ didn't have ethanol, till about a year ago when I had my generator sitting for a year and had only 94octane sitting in it, well it ate the carb seals and anything not metal in the carb was gone not to mention it didn't even smell like gasoline. The carb damage was the same as my buddie's commercial mowers carbs look like after sitting all off season and someone forgets to use stabilizer or the stabilizer didn't work too great. Ever since they started adding ethanol to the gas every single line trimmer needs a carb rebuild every season. It's so problematic the Stihl actually makes a rebuild kits for their commercial lawn equipment specifically for the carbs and they make them in mass quantities compared to how many they made before ethanol came out. We used to go seasons without an issue on the carbs but run some good old Ethanol through them for the mowing season and after the winter half the seals are dry rotted and the carb is clogged and float bowl is stuck. 😂
