    try a little wd40 in the ignition key. maybe a wet was inseterted getting moisture into the contacts. wd40 (just a little) should work or 111 electrical oil.

    95 Wrangler Check Engine Light On-Won't Start

    for a novice start simple: take battery off and get a store like autoparts to load test it. the noise is proberly a rattling solinoid on the starter caused by lack of voltage/amps from the battery.

    Cold weather electrical gremlin

    this is a educated guess as i dont have a wiring diagram for your model. all the systems you list are controlled from the ignition switch. there are 2 sets of contacts or one set and a relay. one set runs the jeep while the other set/relay runs things like radio-wipers-flasher relay.....at a...

    pre 71 cj5 power steering?

    did they make a power steering set up for the willys to pre 71 cj5. the reason i ask is i was looking at a cj on ebay that the owner said has a hydraulic pump but there was no pictures of where the pipes went to but they seem to be heading in the direction of the steering box.

    TJ 1st gear shakes

    if the brakes drums have a groove worn into them then the new shoes will be wider that the groove and this can cause headaches until the shoes wear in to the width of the grooves. the only other thing i would surgest is to replace the flex pipe to the rear axle as the inside of the flex may be...

    t90 trans sycro question?

    thanks for all the replys. after looking at what my friends have laying around i realise that getting a sycro first is going to lead to changing most of the drive line. i found a t19 joined to a t20 transfer (doesnt have the low first but is sycro) then i thought if i have to add a adapter i...

    t90 trans sycro question?

    thanks for the advise. im going to pop over the father-in-laws and raid his scrap pile to see what he has and go from there. with the cost of adapters i might even consider finding a engine/t19 trans combo that way i will have more power and the sycro box.

    electrical/lighting question

    any relay 10-15 amps should work. on a 3 leg relay one is coil power (connected to head lights to energize the coil)-one is line (connected to the battery)-one is load (connected to the lights) and the metal case is ground. any new relay will have a wiring diagram so instead of asking for a 3...

    t90 trans sycro question?

    t19 seems like the best option except from what i have read about them being weaker than the t90. will i have to get adapters to match the f134 or is there a certain type i should be looking for. as for the overdrive thats on my wish list but it seems a very rare and exspensive part to find.

    Sputter?

    start with a basic tune up as this could be as simple as a dirty air filter or weak spark plug.

    t90 trans sycro question?

    has anyone ever heard of a sycro first gear or a conversion for a t90. first gear is great in the mud and second gear is great at low rpm on the trail to the flag ponds. the problem is there are deep muddy spots on the trail so i have to stop to select first gear as its not sycro-ed and i dont...

    headlights dont work

    on a side note if you have additional lights like driving or fog lights check that theres a relay installed for them. the contacts in the switch are rated for the lights only so any additional load can cause the switch to burn out. (been there done that)
