I want to touch it...

:O

since i will be working in that area it is also time for new plugs and wires.

just got home from doing the wires, plugs and installing a cold air intake on red. what a difference i can feel a little more power and i will test out the milage when i go out sunday to wickenburg.

i will try to do a write up tonight depending on how long it takes me to fix a friends computer.

:)had a check engine light saying there is a small leak in the gas cap, replaced and drilled a hole to attach platic strap. forgot to clear the code doh!!! will have to do that later

next was to plugs and wires

as you can see you have to remove the throttle body to get to the center plugs and since i was installing a cold air intake it was a good idea to do this now

easy ones first


with the body off it was easy to finish the job

Sweet deal man! You couldn't have cleared the codes if you had wanted to because I have my scanner with me and the other is locked up :)

the parts and tools ( i know the pics suck, stupid phone!!)

remove the bolt holding the support and remove front of filter save bolt. if you had a broken clip cut your panduit straps off.

then disconnect fthe rest from the throttle body and save the rubber hose for later

remove fuse box from bracket

now it is time to put together the box that came with the kit

remove bolt on fuse box bracket

remove bolt on fan mount

slip box through the brace with the gromet that came with the kit

box will ine up with the bolt holes you just removed. i added a nut to the third hole to put it on my light i have in the fender. the kit comes with a bolt and nut to attach to this hole.

connect the platic tube to the rubber tube and reattach to throttle body

attach to bolts to the box and tube and secure them together.

attach cone filter and weather stripping around the box


now attach stickers to jeep and take for a test drive.

overall this is about a 30min install add 15-20 mins if you change plugs and wires. fairly easy enough for one person to do this install. instructions are easy to follow.

a couple more things done tonight--

removed light bar- tired of it hitting the garage
removed the plastic on the back bumper- self-explanatory

Awesome write up Russ. Love the upgrade.

Nice Russ! One thing though. How will the intake do the next time you cross the Verde dragging another jeep behind you? lol

it is finally time to get the sliders welded on. out at butcher jones found a bolt had come out and another was stripping out so i had richard (yetti) weld them in for me. here are a few pics for ya.
