How do you drain the radiator of a 1990 jeep Cherokee?

If you take the grill off of the front of the vehicle you should be able to see the radiator. Look on the passenger side of the radiator, your wing nut type plug should be on the side of the radiator.

The Jeep Cherokee radiator drain plug is plastic and very fragile. You should remove the lower radiator hose to drain the cooling system.

How do you repair a 1992 Jeep Cherokee Loredo that has the anti-lock on and will crank but will not start?

If you are talking about the anti-left lock you can just pop the hood and disconnect the battery cables and it should reset and everything will be fine.

Is there a PCV and a CCV on a 1992 Jeep Cherokee Laredo?

No. The front elbow is just a connector to receive filtered air that is drawn into the engine from the air filter. On the inline 6-cyl, the CCV is toward the rear and is the smaller tube running to the intake manifold. It is precisely sized to meter the amount of vapor it draws while running.

Installing a PCV in the front tube will overpressurize the engine, causing it to blow the gaskets and seals, creating a series of repairs that never solve the problem.

What are the consequeces of rodding out your catalitic converter until you can afford a new replacement?

NOT THAT MUCH DAMAGED IT WOULD TURN YOU CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND WOULD LOOSE SOME HORSE POWER AND WAIST A LITTLE EXTRA GAS AND EVENTUALY WOULD MAKE A LOUD NOICE TILL IT COMPLITETLY BLOWS.

Why car would shake a little on stop lights and a few months later do the same thing but shut off HELP?

Have the egr valve tested(vacuum test) when the egr goes bad the vehicles idle changes it feels like its going to turn off ,but if the valve is stuck open all the way the vehicle will turn off when idling. While answer 1 is not incorrect, another possible and more common cause is that the vehicle has gone far too long without proper preventive maintence and is in need of a complete TUNE UP. Failure to regularly and properly do recommended preventive maintence is guaranteed to eventually lead to performance problems. Good luck. j3h

How do you replace the speedometer cable in a 1990 Jeep Cherokee?

In general, there are two possibilities. 1, remove the entire speedometer cable and housing, replacing it with a new one. 2, if the cable housing is still intact you can get an inner cable and just feed that through. Some of the inner cable kits can be difficult to cut to length so you may need to put it in, check for length then pull the inner cable out and follow the instructions for cutting it to length.

How do you replace the serpentine belt located on a Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo?

For the 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, you'll need a 1/2" socket wrench. The longer the wrench the better, i.e. a long breaker bar. The spring retention arm has a square hole for the 1/2" socket to be placed. Once placed, you can adjust tension for serpentine belt removal or application. Follow the belt route guide on the "little sticker" near the belt under the hood. If you don't have a 1/2" socket wrench, I'm pretty sure you can rent the necessary tool at Autozone for free (deposit returned when tool returned). This method works for many different vehicles, makes, and models.

Why don't the wipers in your 1991 Dodge Caravan turn off when the switch is in the off position?

Wiper motors have an internal switch that keeps the wipers running after you turn them off. The switch stays active until the wipers get to the "PARK" position and if the drivers wiper switch is off, then the wiper motor is turned off internally. I suspect the internal switch has failed. Unfortunately the switch cannot be easily replaced. Fortunately, wiper motors are not terribly expensive.

Where is the neutral safety switch located for the 1992 Jeep Cherokee?

Neutral safety switch is on the passenger side of the transmission oddly enough. It is delicate and can be easily broken as it is made of bakelite material and will not take much stress. DO NOT PRY on this device when making adjustments. They cost in the range of $180 to replace. Keep in mind that this same switch is what turns on the backup lights as well as allowing the Jeep to start in Park. So if you have trouble with backup lights AND/OR the thing won't start in Park (but will in Neutral) this is the likely culprit. Here is a link to some pictures so you know what you are looking at. http://newton.tek-ed.com/jeep/thumb0001.htm And here are some generic instructions from a fellow Jeeper (thanks to Ed Kummel for the following post): "The device is on the passenger side of the transmission opposite of the shift linkage. If the underside of your Jeep is like mine, then the shaft that this device is on is gunked and corroded and difficult to remove. If you're lucky, then you won't really have to remove the device. To adjust the switch, you will need several people (at least two) Loosen the bolt at the top. The hole is slotted which will allow for ~a little~ ammount of play. Have one person in the car with their foot on the brake and the shifter in reverse (with the key on of course). Have the second person behind the car looking for the reverse light. You are under the car moving the switch through the slotted play. When the person in the back sees the reverse light, top moving the switch and tighten it down...and hopefully you're done! If this doesn't fix your problem, then you will need further work. Removing this thing is a real problem. The metal is a cheap pot metal and the plastic is bakelite. So, it will shatter with a minimal amount of force. Plus the wiring harness is wire-tied to the main harness leading up to the engine compartment! So, don't force it!"

Your 1995 Cherokee v8 auto won't shift into second gear until 3000 rpm or better any ideas?

You may have to replace the seals in the transmission.If you have to go to 3000RPM it is the seals.Hate to be the bearer of bad news.Just to be sure,take it to a transmission shop,I think they will tell you the same thing.

Where is the fuel filter located on a 96 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo?

You need to crawl under the back of the vehicle. If you are centered, it will be about 2 feet in, directly above you to the right. It is flush with the bottom of the car. Its about 6 inches long and 4 inches wide. arablak@msn.com

What do you do if the lift gate latch on a 1996 Grand Cherokee Laredo does not release gate but the lock seems to work OK?

I just solved this problem from inside the back storage area. Dirt in the mechanism and all along the rubber seal where the door closes against the back of my 1993 Cherokee was the problem and cleaning out the dirt and spraying with WD40 was the solution once I got the liftgate open.

1. remove the upper left and right screws holding the carpeted plastic inner lifthatch cover/pannel exposing the mechanism.

2. To do this I pried the small open area upward until the pannel broke free. Two plastic screws broke in the process but I wasn't concerned with it.

3.at the bottom center of the latch mechanism you will see the stud sticking up that the latching mechanism "U"piece grabs and locks to when it swings left to lock the liftgate/hatchback. The "U" opening faces the the stud when opened.

basically the white plastic rectagular cup swings toward you when the button is pushed from the outside and a cast metal peice pushes it. Then the "U" shaped peice can swing and allow the door to open with a push or pull if it doesn't pop open..

4. There was a mechanism to the right that had to be moved so the white plastic could swing and allow the "u"shape to pivot and the liftgate to open.

5. After spraying, work these mechanisms until they move freely and the springs can reset them. Then open and close the lift gate repeatedly.

6. There was an electric locking mechanism to the upper left of the mechanism but mine wasn't engaged so it wasn't an issue.

Answerso the lock works and when you pull the handle it doesn't fully unlatch? i had that problem so to fix it i removed the door panel(lift gate) and that will expose the whole latch mechanism. you can then watch what the latch does when you pull it and chances are you will find that the clamp that is attached to the pin has moved up whicth then prevents it from fully unlatching. you then unsnap the clip and move it down on the pin, i also suggest you secure in in that spot i used a small 2-bolt cable clamp and have not had any problems since (8-months) . Answermy jeep has that problem right now. i just lean on the door and then pull the handle then let go of the door and it work s fine. good luck.

How do you check and read the problem codes for a 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo?

You can cause the "CHECK ENGINE" light to blink the error codes.

Without starting the engine, turn the ignition key on, off, on, off, and back to on.

The "CHECK ENGINE" light will flash the first digit, pause and then flash the second digit of any stored error.

Example:one flash and pause and eight flashes = number 18 error code.

You can also try this inclusive web page that can itemize most error codes for you. To read them from the car's computer you need an ODBII compliant reader , either computer program or utility tool from most car part retailers.. ie about $200

answer1995 grand Cherokees are not ob 2 compliant listen to the first bit of information because it is correct. When you are turning the key switch back and forth 2 or three times between acc and off.
