    Great video, as always! Really appreciate this high-level overview; it really puts the details in perspective. This one was particularly helpful for me. I've got a '91 YJ Islander that I bought new with 3 miles on the ticker. I've also got an '88 that I bought a few years back for my kids (both are 6-cylinder manuals). The '88 had that POS BBD carb on it that would make the car stall every time I stopped. I looked at tuning it but learned it was lipstick on a pig. Instead, I put a Sniper BBD EFI system on it that made all the difference. I pulled about 10 lbs of vacuum lines and exhaust controls off the Jeep because they were no longer needed. I followed up with Sniper's electronic distributor and Hyperspark coil. These changes made all the difference! Your video helped me put everything I'd learned on the EFI install into context for my '91 YJ and its TBI system. Thanks! I do have one question. My Sniper EFI has a bad MAT sensor. It doesn't seem to be used for much in the fuel tables, and it's not giving me any other issues. Do you think that'll be OK in the long run?
    Keep the great content coming. Your videos have helped more than you'll ever know.

    Hey Mr Poweraddict, my YJ has a lil 4 cylinder. The engine seems to have poor vacuum. Will run with a lot of small blasts of ether. The fuel filter is relatively new. The brake vacuum booster is brand new. Suggestions please, or anybody else.

    Good stuff. As it happens I just spent my Saturday changing out my oil pressure switch on my 2.5 YJ. I was convinced it was the oil pan gasket that was leaking so I did that last weekend. But it kept leaking in the same general area. Well got out of work Friday and had no oil pressure, check oil and dip stick was dry. It just so happen I had a quart with me so I ran the engine and in the sunlight I finally saw the oil pressure switch just spewing oil. Got the part Saturday and no leaks. Love working on my YJ. stuffs a lot simpler.

    Oh my 94 YJ with a 2.5 I had to buy a adapter thing that goes into the radio hose. So I could run a temp gauge.
    My engine is from a XJ of unknown year and it doesn’t have the sensor in the same spot. They literally used both XJ and YJ parts when they swapped the engine so it’s a miss match of parts.
    The previous owner had the engine installed by a shop

      Not on YJs. TJs and later XJs had them and of course all the newer Jeeps after them.

    I have a 1994 jeep yj my speed meter and rpm are not working at all, I went under and I noticed a cable is missing from the Transmission speed sensor, can you do a video on where the cable connects to for the rpm and speed meter to work?

    Can you do a video on how to adjust your throttle positioning sensor I hear you just have to move it a little bit If you are running rich Which I am I smell gas Can't get an exact number of what it is supposed to be Set at Text JB

    • @Poweraddicts
      @Poweraddicts  8 місяців тому +1

      Sound to me like you have a bad O2 sensor. Possibly a temp sensor reading too cold keeping it in "warm up". Also I've seen people run too cold of a thermostat which causes the engine to run rich. You need a 195 degree t-stat to run properly. Leaky exhaust or a bad catalytic convertor will put off smells as well. As for adjusting a TPS, your not going to adjust a factory one. There might be an aftermarket that I don't know of.
