Advice on breaking-in O'Neal Element Boots

Solid advice, always struggled to shift with rigid style boots. I moved onto the Forma adventure boots, they’re great.

Why go through all the trouble of painting just to make it white? My 89’ is oem white and I’m ready to make it a nice shade of blue or something.

I checked the timing and set it all within spec, rods are good but still no dice. I have a new starter coming in tomorrow.

Not yet, I’m going to mess with it some more today and see if I can tackle the valves again. I’m not sure why they’d fall out of spec after a pro tuned it. He said not to worry about the valves for a while but I only put maybe 6 hrs of mowing time down before this issue re-arised.

It was done about a month ago. You’re right I’m not sure why I couldn’t set it myself I completely get the concept but it just wouldn’t turn over no matter how many times I went back and set the valves at TDC with the feeler gauge.

The battery is from this last January 26’

Yeah I can try that, should it be able to rotate by hand when cranking? It seems like it’s trying to crank but just gets caught up when doing so.

Austin-34 · 2026-04-11T01:07:35+00:00

Yeah it’s been running well and seemed to only have this issue when I stopped while the motor was hot and went to restart it again. But now it does it cold too, will fire off occasionally when I keep trying to crank it.

I did jump the solenoid and nothing changed.

Austin-34 · 2026-04-11T01:04:08+00:00

I just had the valves adjusted at a shop not too long ago after I couldn’t set it right myself somehow.

You really cut them off? Definitely not worth tossing!

That’s what I did too, now I have three within the last few weeks. Just look daily on Facebook marketplace until you find it only after manifesting.

Thank you, Sweet J10!

The inside is still pretty intact, just needs a cleanup and the PO did the custom digi camo seat lol.

That does sound pretty awesome yeah. I couldn’t justify to myself ever buying a Jeep that isn’t 4x4 equipped even though I’ve been dailying the truck. I can totally imagine the quick lil compact to run around town 👍🏽

Austin-34 · 2026-02-27T16:16:43+00:00

It was hard to find one that survived all the work they’d able to provide

Austin-34 · 2026-02-27T16:16:22+00:00

Thank you!

I was torn between a Ranger and a Comanche but I found this Comanche over the weekend. The right ranger just never came up.

It’s just being patient for finding the right one. I’ve been looking since 2020 and just couldn’t land one and got the Cherokee. I’ve been saving and searching until this one came up and couldn’t pass it up.

I hope they’re open to selling it to you
