      I was an electrician for almost 40 years, and wiring big commercial buildings are easier than vehicle wiring.
      I chased a short somewhere under the hood of my 1991 250 for months, the battery would drain in about three or four days if I didn't run it.
      I had the whole harness cut open and carefully looked at every single wire from point A to point B.
      I spent months looking for it, then it just went away. I must have moved something that fixed it.
      After it stopped draining I put a new battery in it, and sold it before it came back.

      Got ya beat on that FUBAR Rudy Spent 3 days working on an 81 Camaro trying to find a dead short that would drain a good battery overnight. 4 hours into the 3rd day I got fed up, disconnected the battery, started walking away, then had a flash of inspiration. Grabbed the wiring diagrams and tore into it again. Eight hours later I had it figured out but couldn't get any readings on my multimeter That's when I remembered that I had disconnected the battery. That was 18 years ago and my brother is still laughing about it. Disconnected the electric choke, put a manual cable in, no more dead batteries.

    Rudy's fabrication skills at his age are impressive. I do have to say, since watching Matt and Paul's channels, all the guys (& Gal's) seem like the coolest people in the WORLD to hang out with. I built my first vehicle. 1991 s-blazer. Lifted it 6" and put a V8 in it, keeping the fuel injection. There was a lot of custom work I did to it. My dad passed away a few years before I got it but I always wanted nothing more than to work on it with him so seeing Rudy in the shop with Matt makes me smile. They all seem like such good, genuine people. Thank you guys for your content! Hope you all have a safe journey on the "secrete mission"!

    Trevor, is the OBD II harness still attached or did it fall victim to weight reduction?
    A dead cylinder is easy enough to find with a laser thermometer shot at the spark plug. Now what's causing the dead cylinder is another story. Once you find the dead cylinder, swap a injector and see if the dead cylinder follows the injector relocation. Also a quick ohm test on the plug wires is in order.
    Also, unplug the MAF sensor and run the Jeep. A bad MAF will cause a dead cylinder. Plug the valve cover line as it can cause a lean condition.

    The 4.0 liter inline 6 cylinder that came standard on the Cherokees was a bulletproof engine offering a good amount of torque, especially given the vehicles size and weight. I loved my old Cherokee great vehicle that, despite having issues, was dependable. The two doors especially make great working vehicles, just take the backseat bottom out and fold the back seat back down; lots of space on a vehicle that will get you just about anywhere. With 4-6 tube sands bags strapped in the back they make about the perfect plow vehicles, especially with studded snow tires. While I managed to get the Ram 2500 stuck while plowing I never got the Jeep stuck. The Cherokee with a bigger engine and better transmission would be even better; I always thought it would be nice to go diesel.

    I would recommend a protective screen wire of 1/4” round stock to protect the radiator from winch cable / fiber line. Sometimes there may be back lash icthere is a mishap with the “line in” winch process.

    Having many yrs experience with the Amc/Jeep 4.0 6-inlines, to get the full benefit fan draw, I can't imagine trying to go without a tight fan shroud. With all the engine bay openings, tornado like winds will be creating big back pressure against the radiator, fans work. I missed seeing x-mission coolers on the ck-off list. Matt, thks for the vids, keep the fun going.

Hope it was serve you for many years to come. Thanks for the review.
