You've checked the main coil going to the distributor. I know that was a big issue with my moms 2.5 94. I know cruiser has sonera good insight for those dinosaurs. If his renix xj tips work well for the 2.5 YJs as well

Alright guys I just change the oil on my xj I use 15w40 which is what I use on the Comanche which Runs fine and the motor loves but when I put it in the xj the oil pressure gauge went all the way to the right pass the 80 and the gauge was perfectly working a hour ago when I drove the jeep. I Change spark plugs and wire also. The question is what's. Going on with the gauge is the oil too thick? The Manche has a lot more miles and the gauges don't work. I'm afraid I'm going to Mess something Up.

Does anyone know of a good cheap site to get factory replacment carpet, like the pre formed stuff?
I know I can just use the replacment stuff but I want all the bends right.
