Thanks very helpful video. I have a 95 country with a 4.0 that tends to
ping a bit under a load and mostly on hot days. I thought the timing was
advanced too far so I loosened the hold down and tried to back it up a
little and thanks to your video I now know why it wouldn’t turn. Now that I
know it’s not the distributor, I suppose searching for a vacuum leak is
next on my list. It has 214,000 on it, so if I find no vacuum leak, I’m
guessing a possible worn timing chain? Does anyone have info on a pinging
4.0?
1998 xj 280,000 miles, cap rotor wires plugs air filter change oil and
filter new battery brake pads tires bulbs original fuses only notice tranny
when goin into 4th at exactly 43 mph, tough little vehicle.
I have a 93 Jeep XJ. My Jeep would Start but would hold Idle for a few
second. Then it would Die. The TPS, ISC, fuel Filter was Changed started to
Run then Die again. Test for Fuel Pressure (need 39psi-50psi) Barely Fuel
pressure. REPLACED Fuel Pressure Regulator n Fuel Pump Assy. Same problem.
Replaced Crankcase Sensor. It Ran for 20 minutes. Decided to fuel Jeep.
Went to Gas Station n Filled up. Then went to the same freakin Problem.
Clean FuelRail n Injectors.
Need Help ….Going Crazy!
So I did it exactly the way you said putting the oil pump at 11 o’clock but
the problem is when I put mine in, my rotor points at 6 o’clock not 5
o’clock. I’m not sure what to do from here cuz this my second attempt and
it’s the same result, a very rough idle which the original didn’t cause.
I need ur help. I have a 91 cherokee 4.0 and I just replaced the spark
plugs, wires, distributor cap, and rotor. Well now for some reason it will
not start at all. I have the firing order correct (153624) but still.
Absolutely nothing. Started jst fine with before I did this tune up. I’ve
been working on this for the last two nights. Someone please help.
This video solved a 3 month issue I had, I even had mechanics over at my
house stumped. I ran across this video by accident watched it and even as
simple as it is. This video made my jeep run right again. Thank you so much
for this video!!!!!
This engine is a 6 cylinder inline 4.0 right. Are all the 6 in lines the
same? Cuz I’ve got on in my 96 grand cherokee, and I wanted to make sure
the procedure is the same.
I followed everything went well, I still dodn’t get it to turn on. It
cranks and im sure I have electricity I hear explotions inside pistons but
doesnt turn on. Hmm any sujestions?

I missed that punch part…and I think that may be why my jeep isn’t
running. I’ll let you know, thanks for the video brotha! XJ Life!

Thanks for the video! Very helpful to anyone who has an xj. I’m assuming u
just turned the belt assembly to line up the first piston?
I did same thing what you did but bolt didn’t line up properly

Your Video was very imformative. Thanks.
Thank you! I have read/watched several exlpanations and videos but this by
far is the simplest explanation I’ve seen.
I wonder if this will work on a 4.2L engine?? Hmmmm.
I mean 6o clock
thanks bro she went right in…
I keep ending up with it pointing at cyl 6 not working

Thank you for the information very useful as I just purchased in 1999 jeep
Cherokee sport with the distributor and of course in-line six
Dallas, do you know the procedure for the 93 jeep cherokee? Would it be the
same? Or different clock positions?

Excellent video.
