"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.

Bought Sight Unseen: Building a Jeep 4.0L and Immediately Driving it Cross Country - Operation Taco
Intro Music: th-cam.com/video/w4W_7wgKviM/w-d-xo.html
Operation Taco takes us from the marshes of east Georgia, deep into Florida and across the Southern United States in our quest to get Taco driving his own XJ. We figure out how to build an engine, and then immediately drive it across the states.
Taco took part in our last adventure: th-cam.com/video/RRsq1e2tLZU/w-d-xo.html
Taco first appeared in Operation Ultimate: th-cam.com/video/NwA0tjckRUY/w-d-xo.html

Payback: th-cam.com/video/kdkhSKNbfPg/w-d-xo.html
We never did find out why the engine was torn apart, only that it was done so against the will of the previous owner: She brought it to a shop for a diagnosis on some noise it was making (likely just lifter tick) and without her consent, they tore open the engine, found nothing wrong, and told her it'd cost $2,000+ to reassemble everything. She denied the service (having never asked for it in the first place) and had the Jeep towed back to her yard, where it sat since 2018.
The Cylinder Head is from Edlebrock, none of that 0331 nonsense for this one.

@3:42 The issue isnt not having abs ot tcs alone . Its the fact that the 242 is an open center diff so it would need those to direct the power . You are comparing it to a car that doesnt have a normal open center diff and was build that way to work without abs or tcs , same as my 93 audi s4 (the abs on it was trash and you even had the option of an abs off button on the dash back then) . This is actually why i chose to put a np120 trailblazer SS case in my crew cab manual awd big block muscle truck . I have a np242AMG h1 case too but everything i looked into the np120 would be a better case to live with on the street and in the snow (living in new england) and i dont want to use my pontiac G8 in the winter . Yes i dont have 4lo but i never taken the truck off road because its to big but im still toying with the idea of putting a jeep 242 into my 4.0 TJ manual .
4:13 lol, I don't think that's a stone fans of old Jeeps/AMCs should be throwing
Thank you for the trick about the 99 starter being a plug.. you just saved me $100. Thanks!!!!
So if you are gonna get the new stufd. Is it the backing plates that are needed from the wrecking yard.
yes
Hey brother. You say worst tutorial ever. I say. Not so, great info.
sir what is the item number or OE No.of that rotor disc?
Love your stories. Were you doing 65 to get that kind of mileage?
@WillyNilly500 yes, 60-65 it's amazing the difference going 5 under will do for MPG. And on a thousand mile trip, you only lose a few minutes
Thank You so much, it was so much easier after checking this great video. You were right about everything, those 2 bolts was really stuck. I used a Chinese induction heater( vevor), 60seconds each, not yet glowing, after that they started to move. I have the 2.5L manual XJ, noted holding the stick that there might be a problem in the mount, and yes, it was totally shot.
hermano espero me puedas ayudar, yo quite el termostato y no tiene anticongelante ahí por qué ?
I have a stock 1992 4.0 manual 5 speed with the 242 and limited slip in the back. Could it be it was modified by a previous owner? If what you say is true, that they never came out like that
@WatchGeek yes someone swapped the transfer case at the very least. I have seen the build sheet configurations, the factory never offered the NP242 with a manual
@WAEMIDIV thanks for the fast reply 😁👍
I fixed it, and still alive thanks for the heads up Buddy
Nostalgia anyone
Dude the clarity of your videos, from the narration to the diagrams are amazing. Thank you
Hey waemid just wondering your input on something. I have a 00 with a cracked head. I just recently started having low low oil pressure I verified with a mech gauge . Ik it’s very well possible I wiped out my cam bearings. That being said . Do you know if throwing a new head or atleast a non cracked head would buy time ? Should I just drive it till she’s gone ? If I do replace head would I have to pull motor and do cam bearing etc ?
@@casualactivities1229 replacing the head will stop it from getting any worse, but nothing is gonna heal the engine It's up to you to determine what you'll do it very much depends on many unique factors
@ I’ve weighed a lot of factors….. I do love to drive it I prefer to drive it over my other newer vehicles…. But it was always meant to be a trail rig might just send it out with a bang and hit the rebuild . Thank you for the response !
That flame thrower is idea for a bear attack or cougar, depending where you're at ,,,,well itll pretty much stop ANY kind of attack you could say !
😂I thought I notice the oil pressure was rather low, have you checked that ? It needs to run on at least 35 or 40 on that gauge , but I only saw it at a glance, I hope its ok,,,,,these motors run forever long as it's got desent oil pressure and doesnt over heat, I have a 1998, 278,000 miles , still starts and runs like a new one, but that 35 rearend is howling a little, they are next to nothing as a rearend tho !
Need one of these, know of another site?

Hello, I love all your XJ videos. It's so instructive 🙏. I live in France. I would like to buy an XJ not for a daily use, just for fun. I love the 1st gen XJ (exterior and interior looking) and I'd definitively prefer to drive a manual transmission. In order to avoid the Peugeot BA10 transmission, I target an XJ from 92-96. Is my reasoning correct ? What do you believe is the best option/way to get a reliable 1st gen XJ with manual transmission ? Thank you for your help, Julien
@@julienfries3321 il suffit de garder un œil sur les personnes qui les vendent, la transmission Peugeot a pris fin en 1989, donc vos années sélectionnées fonctionneront
@WAEMIDIV Within the 91-96 range, do you recommend (or advise against) a specific year? I'm interested in 96 to benefit from the OBDII system... But I read it's a weird configuration (mixed of 1st and 2nd gen).
@julienfries3321 any year will have its quirks, but no XJ is any less XJ than any other XJ. 1996 is a good year, people are just scared of them because the wiring and fuel system is different: but if you don't have problems with those, everything else is the same
I love the design of that ceiling fan. Those beveled glass shades are a big favorite to me too.
You have great ceiling fans. I'm a ceiling fan collector myself and have a few dozen of them!
This vehicle was the top of the line Jeep(Cherokee based) back in 1990. They are like unicorn's today and you NEVER see them. Although that vehicle is in pretty bad shape and the seller is a total loser, i might buy it to restore. No rust, 98% complete. And even if the motor is bad, you could fix it for less than $2,000. I definately wouldn't pay $4,000, that's for sure. I would offer $2,500 max.

Damn this is amazing, they just kept getting better and better, there's so many things I like about this episode in particular, I can't list them all lol
WJ pressure fittings are m20x1.5 and the XJ pressure fittings is m18x1.5 Since the thread pitches the same it will feel like it threads in properly. a lot of people can get enough meat for it to bolt the power steering high pressure line down. Unfortunately a lot of times it'll cut off threads, leak, or blow off like what happened in the video. I have a bunch of photos documenting this if you're interested.
God damn, the ending looked quite real, dedication, my friend did that once.
No damage run fail.
wow ive been riding around in part time thinking it was fine to run on pavement
1 year ago today I picked up shallers transmission :(
Correct about the O2 sensor wire bracket not present on 87-90 Fed emissions. I'm lucky in that the 93 YJ drivetrain I scored has it, so I'm going to make use of it (HO engine with Renix sensors/ computer/ Renix to HO throttle body TPS adapter). Great vid, as always- revisiting this one for any reminders I'll need before knocking this out today.

I have a 2.5 99, automatic 3 speed(30rh) went bad i'm thinking to make it manual need to get the ax5 or the ax15 is good to go?
@andresalbertofloresordoric3023 You can make an AX-15 work with a 2.5L, but the direct bolt on option is the AX-5. You will need 2.5L specific other things like the driveshafts too, there's a bit more technicalities with the 2.5L manual swap
Thanks from 3 years later! Friggin XJ’s clutch decided it didn’t wanna engage (or actually disengage I think) anymore just before snow, so now I gotta take a gander at the clutch fork
@itsMBWAAA the manuals are so much easier, the only additional thing to worry about is removing the shift lever (get the center console out)
I love how there's good folks out there working on XJ and posting videos! Thank you for reliving the legend!
Thanks for giving me the courage to dig in. New head on the way 🤞
Does anyone know if those bolts are torque-to-yield, or one time use bolts?
@@firesorcererfs6029 the manifold bolts can be reused, they are not torque-to-yield
