1988 Jeep Cherokee. I believe it is the pioneer, or one of the hi-end versions It has power everything. Leather seats. part-time/full time 4wd-np241 transfer case recently replaced. Has brand new stock tires. new CPS sensor, IAC sensor, Alternator. Several other parts. Cap-rotor. I added a radiatior hose inline fill cap to get rid of the pressurized system thatI had problems with. It ran fin after. Had it running for a short while after that and it never got hot or overheated.
The jeep was owned by older gentleman, who put lots of time and money into it. as you can see it was painted flat black and gold. The jeep has absolutely no rust holes or rust underneath. No dents. good glass. Interior is good. needs cleaning but all power stuff works. I have 4 jeeps and love this one, but need money for other projects. It has about 220k mikes on the clock, but I don't think that is correct because it ran to well, and has no rust. Previous owners took well care, and it mite possibly have even been rebuilt. But it drove and ran like it had under 80k. Better then my 2001 I had.
I bought this jeep for double what I am asking because it was rust free, and un-molested never messed with. Was planning on doing a 4" lift kit, and 31-33's tires because it was such a solid truck. It ran fine several drives. 4wd works great in part time and full time,( tested in snow)
Then I started encountering problems. It had the notorious jeep-renix CPS failure so I thought. Hard starting, wouldn't start. start stall.. etc. I would let it sit a cpl weeks then it would start rite up. the next time it would just start and stall. Rite now it starts then stalls. I have figured it out that the injectors stop firing after a couple of seconds of it firing over. Thus the reason for the new sensors and alt. I narrowed it down to 2-recals or the obvious problem. the ecu.
I believe its the ecu. But there were 2-recalls. 1- run the crank sensor wires direct to ecu bypassing firewall connector. 2- clean all grounds, firewall connector, and even add some extra grounding from battery to motor to firewall etc. I never had time to try running the wires direct to ecu, or re-grounding everything. because I think it just needs the ECU replaced. I went over everything else except for those possibilitys, and replacing the ecu which was next.
The rear doors and hatch interior panels are off, someone started to change the speakers, and fix the one door linkage. I have all of the panels. I also have all of the other parts.It may need a couple little things, vaccum lines, speaker covers, A/C return line. Butt most parts that are off are in trunk.
If you are looking for a solid, clean, un-molested jeep to build this is it. Either that or you can strip it and make your regular sport or wrecked Cherokee ito the hi-end model with the part time/full time t-case which is nice for a daily driver.
I also have a factory service manual for it, on disc, and most of original manuals. There is no way to use the check engine light to check for codes with these because it is a Renault-Bendix ECU-EFI system, which is actually a great system, except for the dioagnostic part. But the Disc and gives you all the info you need. And I also have a binder with the factory service info printed on, and all the other tons of info you could need about the renix Cherokee. Also there are many sites on the web that helped me out with it. One is Lunghd.com also other Cherokee/jeep forums.
The jeep is a perfect solid builder jeep. Or perfect' project. I wouldn't be surprised if you put a 150.00$ ECU in it, and it started rite up. As said everything else is replaced or working,Some minor things like a/c line disconnected, and a couple vaccum lines. But I have went over everything I knew and had time to, except for the 2-recalls and or the ECU which can be done in your driveway.
After it runs it wouldn't need anything that I know of to pass inspection. I really hate to sell this jeep because they are getting hard to find solid- and un-molested. But my loss is your gain, I need it gone and have enough other projects.
If you have any questions just ask.
Will need to be towed. Jeep is sold as is, I have clean title. Notary is 2 miles down road.
As I said my loss your gain. All said and done I have over $2200.00 approx. in jeep. I know you cant get that back with any vehicle so make and offer.
You could sell the drivetrain/trans and or the np241 part-time/full time transfer case that was just replaced..quick $500.00 engine ran strong, clean for its age, typical 4.0 i6 could sell a quick $4-600.00 The axles, $300.00 or take the parts you need and scrap the rest for 250-300.
For buy now price I will throw in brand new budget boost 2.5-3" spacers and add a leaf.If you would like, And For a little extra 2 pairs of 31"s both sets still have good tread .and another pair are brand new practicly. The combo on the jeep, an rattlecan paint the fender flares, grille etc. and you'll have a nice Cherokee to have some fun with.
update- I had the vehicle running, It turns out it is a good chance al it needs is a ignition key switch and the linkage to the control solenoid that turns the ecu and everything on for it to run.Or still the ECU which just cost some cash and plug it in and go.

Chrysler's Woodward Dream Cruise festivities include Ram concept truck debut
Tue, 13 Aug 2013The streets will be crowded next weekend along Woodward Avenue in Royal Oak, Michigan for the 19th Annual Woodward Dream Cruise. As part of the run-up to the festivities, Chrysler has announced that all of its brands - Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Fiat, SRT and Mopar - will bring along their latest vehicles. Also included will be a collection of classic American cars and various activities for attendees at the official Chrysler location on the corner of Woodward and 13 Mile Road.
Special to this year, Ram brand director Bob Hegbloom and head of design John Dehner will unveil a Ram concept truck on Saturday. Chrysler will also bring Ryan Friedlinghaus of West Coast Customs fame along to show off a few custom Chrysler-made vehicles of his own. Fans of the brand on Facebook will get the chance to virtually customize a vehicle from the automaker's portfolio, with the winner getting their dream car built for them by Chrysler. Pretty cool stuff, no?
As in past years, Ford and General Motors will have an official presence at the event as well, and you can expect to see plenty of cars of all makes and models from all parts of the globe. The madness starts this Friday, August 16, from 4:30 PM to 10 PM, with the main event taking place on Saturday, from 9 AM to 9 PM. For more details on the show, including events and their times, check out the press release below.
Mopar updates owner apps to make car ownership easier
Wed, Jun 3 2015Owners of any Fiat Chrysler vehicle will want to head to the Apple App or Google Play store to download the latest version of their brand-specific smartphone app. Developed by Mopar, the new suite of FCA Owner apps specific to each brand pack a number of valuable features. For starters, the apps let owners access information like maintenance schedules, service history and recall notices. The apps also include an array of how-to information and instructional videos, offer push notification for important updates like maintenance offers and recall alerts, and allow customers to schedule test drives and receive quotes from their local dealers for new vehicles. But that's just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. The FCA Owner apps also feature an augmented reality function that helps drivers identify instrument-panel icons. There's a Parking Reminder feature that helps drivers remember where they parked their car, guides them back to their parking spot and tracks the time left on the meter. Finally, there's an Accident Assistant feature that helps drivers record the specifics of an accident, upload insurance information and take photos of the scene. It'll even help find the closest certified collision repair facility, schedule an appointment and access roadside assistance. The apps are available for any Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, Jeep, Fiat or Alfa Romeo built from 2011 till today, and are available for either iOS or Android. If you've got more than one FCA vehicle in your garage, you needn't download multiple versions of the app as they'll work on any model the Italian-American automaker offers. Mopar Enhances FCA Owner Apps - Redesigned FCA Owner apps offer a wide range of VIN-specific information - Owners can access maintenance schedules, service history, recall notices and more - "Augmented reality" function, beginning with 2015 models, allows owners to use camera feature on mobile devices to scan and identify instrument panel icons - Industry-first Accident Assistant feature helps owners easily document important accident information and quickly locate a certified repair facility - Individual brand versions of the app support all FCA brand vehicles - FCA Owner apps are free to download for both iOS and Android mobile devices May 29, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - The Mopar brand has redesigned and enhanced its suite of FCA Owner apps, putting more resources than ever at owners' fingertips with easier access to vehicle and lifestyle information.
