    Bad starter? Vid inside

    Thank you everyone so much! My jeep is alive and healthy again. Never buy a starter other than a brand new oem one from the dealership. It was only $40 more than the oriellys one but it works perfectly unlike that POS one from the parts store. Again thank you.

    Bad starter? Vid inside

    Oriellys website lists R612883B as the part number. The box i have says the same number...but A at the end! However, i checked oriellys website for the part number on the box and thier website says the one i have also fits my jeep. Ugh

    Bad starter? Vid inside

    No shim fell out. I just checked the old starter to make sure a shim didnt stick to it, and there was no shim there either. There wasnt a shim stuck to the bellhousing either.

    Bad starter? Vid inside

    UPDATE: I replaced the starter, the jeep now starts up fine, but now it makes an awful low volume screaching noise kind like if the starter and flywheel gear mesh wasnt getting along. I looked at what flywheel teeth i could see when the starter was off and the teeth looked fine. The old...

    Bad starter? Vid inside

    UPDATE: I tried starting the jeep again when i got home. I didnt rock the jeep or anything. I very gently got in and turned the key....it fired right up. And it ran perfectly. I didnt drive it much, i just pulled it around and into my garage. So what do we all think? Starter? If so i will go buy...

    Bad starter? Vid inside

    I doubt it is a problem with air, fuel or spark as 30 minutes before this started happening it was running fine. It idled for 5 minutes while i talked to a neighbor without even a hickup. I moved it out to the street and parked it for only about 10 minutes, then i went to start it again....and...

    I have not tried to push start. It is parked on the street in front of my house and it is facing a downhill section where if it doesnt start, then it will be stuck in the valley. I will check and make sure the starter bolts havent come loose or anything tonight.

    Non-SVT mechanical question

    Thanks, i will check those out tomorrow. If it is o e of those pulleys, is it probably a bearing in the pulley? If so, probably replacing the pulling completely is in order, huh?

    Non-SVT mechanical question

    I just bought a 2003 Jeep Wrangler with the 4.0L inline 6 engine as a weekend toy. The engine is making an odd whine that sounds like a pulley whine, but it's a little odd. It isn't belt squeal and the belt looks great, but the whine is almost like how a power steering pump sounds when it is...

    Setting high pass when running speakers and sub on same 4 channel amp

    I am in the planning stage of my next system and I am planning on running 2 front speakers and a single sub off of a 4 channel amp (I will bridge the rear speaker outputs to power the sub). The thing I am confused about though is how I keep the bridged rear amp outputs from sending frequencies...

    Daily driver not starting, makes metal sound when I turn the key lol

    So my daily driver right now is a 2007 Ford Ranger XL with a 4 banger in it. Since last week, when I try and start it, it tries to turn over but then I hear this loud metallic clank then it doesn't start. If I keep the key turned, it will continue to do this over and over until I stop trying...

    Help me find a new daily driver, got 30k to spend

    So its time for a new daily driver. Easy decision, right? Mustang GT or something equivalent. Unfortunately its not that easy for me this time. This car will be a family car shared by my wife and I. That means two things, it will have to have an automatic transmission and it will have to...

    Brand New K&N Air Filter Recharger kit

    I have a brand new (box opened, but never used) K&N air filter recharger kit. I used to own a car that I had a K&N filter in, but I ended up selling it a few weeks after I bought this recharger kit. The kit includes the filter cleaner spray and the filter oil spray. Both are unused and...
