Happy Hump Day. Belated Happy Anniversary to Paw. Jake I'm glad you got your transfer case. I think it's Jon that started a new job. It's a bummer to miss a day from here,but reading all the stuff that was discussed can be very hilarious.

My CEL has been on since the engine swap and Jake disconnected the battery to clear ,but it came back on. I tried to find the codes online without much success. They are PO138 and PO141. I think 1 is for 02 sensor and have no idea about the other code.Can I please get someone to decipher for me?

The XJ is slow to turnover and my guess is the battery,but the gauge reading is okay. This just started yesterday and I'll get it tested later today. I finally have this darn infection cleared up and starting to feel like a person rather than a pin cushion. I'm still very tired and weak,but that's to be expected after all I've been through the past month. I have one more needle ***** and that's for the flu shot that I was to sick to take a few weeks ago.

Your starter is more concerned with amps than volts. Your voltmeter gauge goes off of the charging system when running, so you could have a bad battery. Sounds like a cell is going bad.
