Nope. Just put it on the same exact way. Unplug the pressure sensor to help slide it down in place

91 aw4 problem
i just replaced my tranny cooler lines and now it seems i got bigger issues... after i refilled it with fluid (it only took 4.5 liters) and tryed to drive it it wouldnt budge and it makes clunking noises when i give it alittle gas.
also i dont have a scanner for it
the initial problem was that a cooler line pressure fitting let go and i lost possibly all my fluid... im hoping this is an issue of the torque converter or the plumbing in the tranny not being filled with fluid, dipstick reads good and it took 4.5 liters

any advice apprciated thx

1988 jeep cherokee 4.0 A/C question.

When using one of the self recharge cans with the sprayer nozzle that comes with it. While attatching the hose to the low side and squeezing the trigger with the jeep on it just builds pressure in the hose and does not allow refrigerent to flow into the lowside line.

I can physically move the schrader valve and verify that both hoses off the compressor have not freon in them.

Whats my problem?

First, do you have the AC on as you're doing it an second get rid of that crap. Using that crap killed my compressor. They don't only have the refrigerant in it some come with other gels of sort

I have a taillight out. I have heard answers from both sides of the fence about this. But do older dakota taillights fit my 86 Comanche XLS? And could I fit a 350 in my jeep?
