I'm happy she's running and so grateful y'all hung in there to help me out. Some good hearted fellas. Special shout outs to Free and Low! But I appreciate all the help. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!


BUT, I JUST WISH I KNEW WHAT WAS WRONG?!!

Maybe, I'll just be grateful and stop worrying. My Jeep has a mind of her own. Maybe she was having a mood swing. She is officially 20 years old now.

IF it really had no spark, but now does, I'd be suspicious of the crank position sensor.

The ASD & B+ Relays supply power to the systems and shut down certain systems like ignition & charging.
