Fixed my annoying electrical short that shut down the gauge reading, stereo and int. lights (it was a broken underhood lamp...). Oil change, installed a new stereo, spark plugs, tightened the belt, put a bug out bag in the back.

Gunna give her a bath to reveal all the well earned battle scars, vacuum it out, and take her down to the ski hill to do some boarding

Bought some cheap vent shades for $30 shipped. Hopefully they don't suck!

In case anyone's interested here's the link:

Thanks for everyone's help on here!!!!
I have been wanting to do this, where did you find the pulley or was it a home brew deal? I have a wobbly compressor pulley, and the AC system is far from working, so i wanted to remove everything associated with it, but havent been able to find anyone making an "ac eliminator pulley". Any help would be great, thanks!

Changed the transmission oil and filter. Now I know why people don't change the filter. PIA job, the dipstick fitting did not separate. But all done.

My XJ is a 95 and the part number comes up as being for a 99-00. Does anyone know if that really matters or not?

A little more hunting and i found this for anyone with a 1991-1995 4.0.

It turns over but wont catch. I just bought it and it wouldn't start so I change the crank sensor and it would turn over but still no initial spark. So I changed the coil still nothing. The I took the electric magnetic thing from the distributor and took it out and cleaned it up put it back in started for a second. Cut engine and tried to start again and no spark. So my question is since I replaced the crank sensor, coil, and magnetic thing in distributor, and have had my ignition module
