Default Fan Clutch

So I replaced my fan clutch a few months ago and now it's chirping like crazy, bought and expensive one too. So I have to go and get a new one and take the old one back. Anyone know the right napa part number for a heavy duty grand cherokee one that will work for my 94 XJ?

I just checked naxja and google and everyone says that 272310 is the upgrade. Says it fits just fine it for 97-98 zj it's a lil louder and drops 1mpg buys keeps system cool

Ps and do not do the 272314 max cool cause it will not fit that's the severe duty you just need standard duty

The 272310 is the one from a grand cherokee, its also the one from the 2.5L because it does not have an electrical fan I believe. Just picked it up, had them compare the 2 they had and this one is definitely beefier. Thanks for the help.

Default engine tick at startup

Hope I'm in the right place for this question.
Just bought a 2000 grand cherokee laredo 4wd 6 cyl. Has great oil pressure(according to the gauge). My only problem, is on startup cold, it has a tick that sounds like a lifter. After a two minute idle, it tends to go away. You can still hear it if you listen very closely, but very light. It is almost like when heat starts building up, it quietens it down. It doesn't change on oil pressure, as that builds up quick. No miss that I can tell. After driving it, you don't hear it the rest of the day unless it sits for several hours. As stated, I am new to the jeep and hoping someone can offer some insights.
Thanks,
Errol

you have a leaky lifter. As the engine sits lifter pressure drops causing a tic. I bet the tic is prevalent at high rpm's too. This won't show up on your gauge because that gets its reading from a port by the oil filter and a lifter that bleeds down wont change overall pressure. When the tic goes away that means that the oil pump pumps more pressure into the lifter than it leaks out. But a leaky lifter is going to be a collapsed lifter in the future. For the time being you can use a Lucas oil additive and the tic will probably go away, just remember a collapsed lifter is a bad day. If it has a BAD tic at startup I would change the lifters, only about 40 bucks for an ok set. But the head has to come off. Its only a few hour job if your good with your tools tho. When u say u have good pressure you have 20 at a hot idle and it jumps to over 40ish as soon as u get on the throttle? My new engine I did has 20psi for every 1000 engine rpms, thats good. Minimum to be safe is 10psi for every 1000 engine rpms. Hope that helps.

Default Cluster of lights on the dash

I am the older woman that had her engine throw a rod..(I still do not know why???) Finally found a compatable engine and had it put in..Now, there are NO lights on the cluster panel.I don't know how fast I am going, how much oil pressure, heat gauge, NOTHING!!!! Just a blank screen..Could the installation of the engine have caused that or maybe the person installing the engine did not hook up something correctly??? As usual, I am yelling HELP!!!!

my jeep shuts off when you drive it around for a little bit. so if you start it cold it will drive for 10 some minutes then it starts shutin off an only gets worse the more you drive.
