Posted by Agent Skelly I noticed my MPG was where it should be...at 15 MPG so I was happy. |
Posted by AnAppleSnail Hah! Of course, nobody buys a Jeep for the MPG. Good to hear it coming together - and good luck with the floorboards. |
Posted by Agent Skelly otaku has the floorboard issue, not me! |
Posted by jeepdave I don't get it, my 91 Cherokee ( same drivetrain as yours) knocked off 20 all day long on the interstate and 16-18 around town. And I beat the shit out of it. Weird. |
Posted by bandi No, you're off by like 19,400v. |

Posted by Agent Skelly Well I am happy with 15 MPG during my daily commute. I'm sure I will do better once on the highway. Anyways, I did some more work today. I have a new CPS, but I was able to get a reading on the old one currently installed. Its reading 7.31 volts when the ignition is ON and when cranking it. And of course, it still won't start. I decided to check again on the ignition coil as I said I was getting no spark out of it previously. Voltage coming out of it is 6.87 volts...is that right? |
Posted by AnAppleSnail ignition coil test. You should be able to draw small sparks to ground - not that it's a good idea to check with a wire you like. |
Posted by Agent Skelly Already done it...and swapped out the coil with another one I had; no change. I'm getting 12V from the harness to the coil too. |
Posted by jeepdave Those coils can be a bitch, I have had new ones that didn't work well. Did you clean the area it mounts to really well? They have to have a fucking perfect ground to work properly. If your getting 12V to it at the proper amps and its only sending out enough for a weak night light then I would check to make sure its grounded properly. |
Posted by velcrozeppelin Sounds like you got a Jeep with VW electronics. |
Posted by bandi No, with VW electronics it'd start... but it'd have small fires and no lights would work except for the check engine one. |
