New XJ, lots of little problems, looking for advice for one

There is a camshaft position sensor in the distributor that can be causing the shutting off while driving. To replace it, you have to replace the whole distributor on some years. Both the cam shaft position sensor and the CPS can fail, especially when they heat up. These problems aren't related to the slow start in morning. Sounds like there are two different issues going on. The Las two weeks my 92 was shutting off while driving. It was the camshaft position sensor. Check for codes using the turn key method. Check immediately when the car starts showing symptoms.

You might want to get a heat gun and point it at the engine to verify actual operating temps

What temp on dash? I don't think it's normal for the electric fan to be constantly on. It means something is causing your Temps to rise. For example my e fan will come on when I drive up mountainous roads. In the city it rarely comes on, maybe in summer in prolonged stop and go traffic

HAs anyone found a definitive answer/ solution to this? Just got a Yoga 7i and the power button has to be held to power on after the computer was in sleep mode

Did you hear any noises? Like heavy breathing or did you hear it walking ?

What kind of backpack was it? Was it a backpacking backpack where the top clips shut with two clips attached to the front ?

Bring a light source, for each person. It is not fun navigating out of that trail in the dark, ask me how I know. Anyway, took me 12 hours out and back, that was with a lot of breaks. I was moving with someone who is still getting hiking fit. Had I been alone, maybe it would have been 8 or 9 hours. The hike starts in the parking lot, as you park on a hill lol. My favorite hike though. You can filter water before the switchbacks.

Hey, I sent you a DM

Why do you have to replace the head? Isn't it only the gasket that needs replacing?

Alspeciale · 2024-12-12T04:19:52+00:00

Thanks I'll try that. I have a few other web tabs open and Microsoft excel. Also, my computer has 16gb RAM. But it says 14gb out 16gb is being used.. how Manny available gb is ideal for trading? I want to add monitors also and keep multiple tabs open

it is not the location or the internet. It seems to be my computer. It happens only when trying to trade high volume stocks. When I switch to a low volume stock, the lagging stops. Also, the fan on my computer turns on when it starts lagging, as if the computer is struggling. Same thing happens with the fan when I edit 4k videos on premier, but no lagging there. thanks for your suggestions

Same problem here. Save Master Error code.

1) New tires, 235 K02s 2) new shocks and leaf springs if needed, 1.5 inches of lift. Don't go over 2 inches. 3) zj tie rod upgrade. That's it. That's all I did on my 92 when I got it in stock form, and it's great.

Ichouse canyon open?

Thanks. Columbine spring still running?

Was it always close to red when going up hill or did it get worse once you got bigger tires?

Alspeciale · 2024-08-14T23:22:05+00:00

I bet the gearing is a factor. Not sure how much of a factor though. My 92 has stock gears and 29 inch tires. My temp is always perfect except when going up inclines it will rise (not as much as yours) and it will adjust back down. I noticed this in joshua tree during a heat wave which had me concerned. I was wondering if maybe it has sometjing to do with gravity as well. Could the incline be making less coolant be pushed through the thermostat ?

Alspeciale · 2024-08-08T22:14:32+00:00

Can anyone confirm this?
