i would say its your coil check it for spark if no spark then check it for power Ah, but what is the reason for no power? This really sounds like the Crankshaft Position Sensor (CPS), which is notorious for crapping out in these engines. I'm replacing the CPS in my 1988 Jeep Comanche 4.0L tomorrow morning. I have the exact problem noted: I have just replaced the plugs, wires, and distributor (once every ten years!), the thing cranks strongly, and yet I've got no spark. I told my Comanche Brother (also has a 1988) that the Jeep won't start and it feels like a sensor problem ... and he said, "Crankshaft Position Sensor." That's when I remembered the same doggone thing causing me a no-start condition about ten years back. The CPS is about $35 -- I just bought one. When you read up on the CPS, I think you'll find your symptoms noted. Provided that this fixes my no-start condition, I'll be getting another and keeping it handy. Update on the 1988 Comanche that would not start ... it started right up. The funny thing is that I didn't even get to change out the Crankshaft Position Sensor (CPS) yet, because it was too cold for that mess today. But here's the thing: it (the no-start condition) was related to the CPS. Since it was too cold to fool around on the engine block today, I unplugged and replugged the CPS connector a couple of times to see if that would get the truck started -- and it did on the first crank. I read about this trick on-line somewhere, and I'll be darned if it didn't work. That's definitely one to remember! In my truck, the CPS connector is right up on top, just to the driver's side of the line of cylinders, back toward the firewall, and just forward of what looks to be the main wiring harness. Son of a gun.
The 1986 Jeep Comanche EGR valve is located on the outside of the air cleaner housing. The valve can be found on the back of the housing.
from 1986 to 1992.
Probably a crank sensor
no. 1986 to 1990 sorry
inside gas tank.
It should be right behind the grill. It is on a 1986.
Jeep Comanche was created in 1985.
It is under the back of the cab on the inside of the unibody rail.
The recommended type of oil in a 1986 Jeep Comanche 2.8 liter engine is 10 W 30. This oil can be purchased at any auto parts store.
Replace Crankshaft sensor=Flywheel sensor. Check rotor
The price of a Jeep Comanche ranges greatly depending on the car's model year. A 1989 Jeep Comanche costs roughly $3000, while a 1988 Jeep Comanche can cost anywhere from $2000 to $4000.
The ignition module uses the crank sensor to decide when to spark.
