Do you happen to remember where you purchased your parts or which manufacturer you went with?

What about wrapping Exhaust all the way up to the intake, manifold properly be good idea

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!

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!!!

Thnx 4 da vid!👍

Bruh I have a 2001 and I have mine out and I didn't remove any of that sht. all I did was put jeep in the air pretty much fell out

Where the video with the 7/16s bolt?

Does anyone have the mopar part number for a 98 Cherokee xj 4.0 for the crankshaft position sensor. I keep getting different part numbers and in those part numbers some say they don’t fit or they do fit. Please help

it seems someone needs dethroning from their kwik trip chicken sandwich in four states simultaneously throne

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!

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???

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

Awesome video had me cracking up good work!! 👏

Ok ok last ask, 2011 - 2017 Compass/ Patriot steering wheel swap with the cruise control board that adapts the new steering wheel buttons to the xj's cruise control! Need a write up... video up?.... you know what I'm trying to say.

This is great, most comprehensive I've seen and it looks like it also covers manual AX15 like mine in the important points.

"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.

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

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

Great video sir

Keep up the great content! Can you get the high idle switch to work on a manual swapped XJ?

This is actually why I 2.5L swapped my XJ

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.

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.

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.

Too bad you cant just get rid of the two pre-cats.....

Good info. I didnt realize that some 2000s and all 2001s had dual cats near the manifold.

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
