    wiring to the alternator on 82 cj7

    Can anyone tell me how the wiring should go from the battery to solenoid, starter, coil, etc on 82 cj7. I have it starting but the alterator is not charging the battery when it is running. I carried the alternator and had it checked so I know that is not the problem. It's got to be how i have it...

    Rewiring for fuse panel

    I think I may have found the main problem. The relay switch going from the key switch with the rod going down the colum(I don't know what it's called) but it has 2 plugs with 4 wires in each seems to be bad. the blinkers will work when it is in the acc. position and also when the jeep is running...

    Rewiring for fuse panel

    FUNNY STUFF Thanks, That seems to be the easiest thing to do at this point. It's an 82 model thats had lots of shade treein' done in the past. All I have is heat and windshield wipers so it don't make sense to go the complete wiring harness route. Maybe after this I can get back to jeepin, and...

    Rewiring for fuse panel

    The on going saga of what started as a simple blower motor replacement has turned into a lot more. Now most of my fuse panel is cold, the wipers and heater fuses have no current. I plan to run new fused wires to each. Should I put in a small fuse panel for these and run it from the battery or...

    painless wiring harness

    The motor will crank and run but the blinkers wil not work while it is running. Also it runs the battery down while it's running so I might have fried my alt. I still think I have something crossed making something still hot while the key is off. Hey if something is not really broke on a jeep...

    painless wiring harness

    I am going from the hot post on battery to left side of solenoid(looking down at it). Also on this post is the wire going to the alternator and the red main wire going to the ignition. Out the other side of the solenoid I am going down to the starter. Maybe what I am not doing right is where the...

    blazer heater motor upgrade

    I successfully got the motor and hole cut but in taking the heater hoses loose the fitting on the core broke. Yesterday being Thanksgiving everything was closed so today I'll get what I need to hopefully finish. I can tell from the bench test it will be a lot more air flow. Doesn't Jeep stand...

    Webber or MotorCraft

    I had the stock carter. It was terrible so I had it rebuilt and lasted for a short time. I hated to spend the money but bought a webber and could not believe the difference. I have read really good reports here about the motorcraft too. I think it is considerabley cheaper and I would probably...

    blazer heater motor upgrade

    If you go with the standard duty 73 blazer heater blower motor do you have to do any mod's on the fire wall for it to fit? Are the mounting holes and all that stuff pretty much the same as on a 82 cj7? Is there a big difference in the air flow?

    windshield wipers on cj7 and heater ????????

    thanks for the info guys. That is exactly what I did, place a large washer on the inside and outside of the frame to strengthen the wiper. I guess this is a common problem according to the jeep fix-it store in this area. He really wanted to sell me a new frame tho'. I'm gonna put the blazer...

    windshield wipers on cj7 and heater ????????

    I am replacing the wiper motor for the second time on my 82 cj7. It seems that the nipple that holds the wiper on the left hand side has become flexible and the wiper gets in a bind. Has anyone else had this trouble and is it possible to brace it somehow from behind or easier to replace the...

    buckshot mudders - problems

    I have an 82 cj7,258 weber carb and 32's, and drive an average of 100 miles to work each day. I love the drive over a one ton ford or chevy van. It's kinda like horses, you pick the one right for the job and that you have fun with. You'll definatly like the aluminum valve cover.

    Temp Gauge Question

    You'll just have to look around on your intake for a water plug, remove it and screw in your sensor. I have a 258 and there were several. I used one right underneath the carb. It should not be too difficult to find.

    Temp Sending Unit Extraction

    1065654 If you are not wanting to go back to the stock sending unit on your jeep and would settle for one mounted under your dash(better I think than the jeep) you can go to autozone or one of those places and ppurchase one and do it that way, if your other sending unit is not leaking.
