98 jeep 4.0 overheated now won't start
My 98 jeep Cherokee was leaking coolant and had all come out and drove to nearest gas station. Before I got to the gas station it started missing real bad and finally shut off. I put water in and let it cool down and it started back up but still missing bad. I drive it up road to friends house and there was water on the oil so we got blue devil to fix the head gasket Gil the weekend. Well we put if in and your supossed to let it run for 50 min but the jeep quit running half way though and won't start.it's getting gas and spark so why would it not start?

So I was checking out my transfer case and found this guy hanging out,...pretty sure it's the vent line but I'm no too sure how to go about fixing it,...

Can anyone tell me if the Haynes manual has a good section about the air conditioning system? With decent pics/drawings? I want to remove it and make sure I get everything and nothing more.

Before you go about just removing the parts, please get the system recovered(vacuumed/drained) it's harmful not only to you(to breath in) but the EPA doesn't take kindly to Freon being discharged into the air. I have been in the HVAC area of work in both automotive and commercial transportation for almost 10yrs, and freon is not a chemical that you want to breath in, it will make you pass out if exposed too long, been there done that.
