Did the hood spacer deal do reduce temps. Already seeing a major difference. Heater core was on its way out also ( cold ac blowing condensation that smelled like coolant ) so I just looped. Cutting back the other lines tomorrow.

Next is new distributor and stator, and timing gears, chain, and guide. If those don't help, new manifold and downpipe.
I don't see anything MAP-related in your list

Also replaced MAP and MAP vacuum line. Forgot about that.

O2 is about six months old, and plug wires are a year old.

I work at a summer camp on the weekends, near the coast. The Jeep is way less fun to drive at highway speeds than I remembered, now that I have new tires...

Yes. Two heads up front two in rear. The one on the dash is orange and the one up high is white. The two rear are orange. Best money spent. Use them for work and even use them on a busy highway behind my buddy broke down after wheeling.

Replaced spark plugs, cleaned up throttle body along with the plunger on the iat sensor and removed and rebuilt the neutral safety switch on the old ladys 98 xj

Pulled front bumper and replaced junk hardware with grade 8 hardware, adjusted rear brakes, hard wired my e fan to a switch in the cab and did a quick tie rod adjustment on some greased up steel plates in the driveway on my 00 xj

Wheeled the ***** out of it. Helped a friend get unstuck, got dirty and gave it a snow/mud bath. What a great day. Oh and one just for fun.
