Re: please help my tj wont fire

There are some electrical issues if you have gauges that were working no longer showing any sign of life. Hate to state the obvious but have you pulled the fuses, in particular the ecu and fuel pump ones. Chances are there is a power issue somewhere. Pull a plug and see if you have spark on turn ov...

Re: please help my tj wont fire

What about a relay? Is there one that controls the fuel pump? Is it new enough to have an immobiliser? It sounds like classic dodgy security gear. Factory immobiliser was/is built into the key (Sentry Key). I am not sure which year this was introduced in. Chops, try turning the key to on while pres...
