    Removal of mold? from soft top.

    yup, but beware, some might leave a "heating oil" smell behind. sunlight is key, that will help dry it out and get rid of the musty smell.

    OIL...or lack of...

    The pcv isnt hooked up. i just finished installing the motorcraft and i cant find a manifold vacuum source suitable enough for the pcv. I tried splicing it into the brake booster vacuum line, but the jeep started to stall once i pressed on the brake to shift. I tried putting it on the back...

    OIL...or lack of...

    one more thing; i also noticed stinky vapor coming out of the line for the dipstick, even with it pushed down all the way. my oil is jet black and i think it needs to be changed, but thats the least of my problems... i want to take care of keeping the oil in before i change it. any ideas?

    where do i put the front pcv hose to? it needs a constand source of vacuum and. i see that there is a threaded brass fitting outside of the choke housing that is constand vacuum, but i think it might be for hot air from the manifold.

    Removal of mold? from soft top.

    valve cover questions. . . Go with the gojo or any other of those cleaners. oxyclean or a citrus cleaner should work well also.

    valve cover questions. . .

    i just want to know if there is a difference between valve covers from a CJ 258 and an 89 yj 258. i have a new chrome air cleaner sittin pretty above my new 2150 carb, and it just makes the aluminum valve cover look shotty. I see chrome ones on ebay, but they say they are for CJs. What would...

    Finally put in the motorcraft 2150. now, given its the 258, there are a whole bunch of vac. lines that need a new home... anyone got some advice? my biggest concern is losing my 4wd, which is still vac. actuated. also, some info on setting mixture and idle would be helpful. im just glad my...
