The ZJ will need new tires soon so it will get more lift to fit some bigger ones. Hmmmm....why do I suddenly get the feeling I won't be getting a new motor until after the Jam and my Jeep will be mysteriously without tires. ;D

Enos my Dad told me yesterday he wants me to get rid of his XJ for him, and it will likely be a part out deal. Complete Nova rebuild 28K ago, awesome motor.

I've been waiting for your reply, kinda disappointing, can you at least make it sound more interesting? ;D If you post the same thing a week before the Jam it would sound better. Problems with the auto? Naw, auto worked mint. Problems with the wife. Darren now has the 727, kevin has the TBI. I have a CJ with no tranny or fuel management system. ;D Let's all hope for a quick sale once the house goes on the market in the spring! P.S. I really only need a weekend to get it Jam ready.

That's my boy! Renewed my confidence in old Jeepers. You know I'm around quite a bit, if you need someone to hold the flashlight or something. Sorry to hear about that, but Jam only comes once a year, you know the rest.....

Damn you Goatse, sold your FI and never gave a fellow 360 owner a crack at it!! I have a recurring problem i need to address b4 any hard runs, engine seems to run out of fuel at full throttle (sputters, surges) most likely suspects have been replaced but to no avail. I'm also putting on a h/d power steering mount which is proving to be a PITA, losing the directions didn't help either.

We all know there's plenty of time. This is where we come up with projects that need lots of time, then wait until the week before to acquire the parts and install them. My OBA compressor has been in the basement since July. I'm sure it will still be there in May.

Valley sod is quite comfy, I think I actually had a nap under the Jeepster and the TJ last year. No creeper required.

Wasn't actually planning on selling it, Kevin just happened to come in at the right time and made me an offer. I'd really like to make my Air gap intkae into a Multiport system with a mega squirt controller and GM sensors. ahhh, one step at a time........ ;D

Looks like I have a 4.0L/AW4 (and associated wiring etc) for the CJ.
