Great job! Very nice video work, shows all the detail of your process. Very helpful for the rest of us. I really like the step by step process documentation.
Brought a new97 hard top then the last TJ Made in Tamworth NSW as far as I no i brought there first an last TJ from that Jeep dealer . Iv also have now a 12 mth 98 TJ with a spice rag top an half doors👍🏻. Keep onJeepon . 👍🏻🇦🇺💯⛽️.
I’m getting an 04 Wrangler 4.0 and it’s seems impossible to find spark plug wires and a distributor cap for anything after a 99 even though it says it’ll fit a TJ It says it’s not compatible with an 04. I’m decent with cars but new to the Jeep game is there something I’m missing here? I want to do a full tune up when I get it soon but can’t find any parts for the 04
The coil pack is the little black cube that sits on top of your spark plugs. You'll hear them called coils, coil packs, ignition coils, etc. Older TJs like mine only have one coil pack that distributes (via the distributor) voltage to the plugs via spark plug wires. Later models like yours have three coil packs integrated into a single rail that mounts directly to the plugs to provide voltage without the need for spark plug cables or a distributor
@@franksgarage13 thanks for clearing that up man and thanks for the quick reply. I thought I was just going insane. I don’t have the jeep yet so I couldn’t just go outside and take a peek but I’m planning to do a full tune up and was trying to throw stuff in my cart early. I’m excited to finally get my hands on a TJ it’s been my dream car for 16 years now
Great video. Going to do plugs, wires, and cap this weekend. Not sure if I should do fuel injectors. Everything in my 99 is original but only has 25k miles on it. I'm thinking that I might as well replace due to age. Thoughts, anyone?
How has the tune up held up over the year? Would you do anything differently? Been wanting to do this for a while but hearing on forums that the fuel injectors dont help much with performance or MPGs, so would you say it's worth after a year?
Thanks for your video. Mine is making that same ticking (kind of diesel sound) as yours at the start of the video. Any idea what that is? Did you fix that?
Thanks for watching. I believe that ticking is the lifters. That noise will likely stay unless you do a rebuild, but I have seen and heard of these 4.0 motors lasting with very high mileage. I’m currently at 220,000 miles.
It started running cooler when I replaced the radiator and thermostat the previous year. The head shield fixes my vapor lock where I would get slow cranking starts after it was hot. Now it starts right up every time no matter how hot the engine. Now the fuel in the fuel line and injectors is cooler
@@cornershottt5257 I just went with the stock radiator on rockauto.com. I replaced the thermostat, water pump, and hoses too. Never made a video on that
Great tutorial video, thanks for sharing 🙏🏽

Thank you. It seems like a lot of work but it just takes patience. Glad this video helps!
Very good tutorial. Explained every step extremely well. I just subscribed.
Thank you for watching!
Best video I’ve been across with the spark plug wires🤙🏻
Thank you so much for watching! Jeep on!
Just bought a TJ- this was very helpful.....thanks!
Thanks for watching. Highly recommend the same maintenance! TJs last forever!
Awesome video! Just picked up a 1998 I'm getting ready to do some tune up work on it. Thanks for the info on the fuel injectors as well!
Glad the video helps! Thanks for watching.
Great Video. Thanks for filming and sharing. Very clear video very detailed process. I am very glad and thankful to you sir.
Regards from Dubai
Thank you for watching. I am glad the video was helpful.
sharpie caps work to remove the fuel line too
First time Jeep owner always wanted one got my first one last week enjoyed the video plan on doing a total tune up on mine soon
Jeeps are fun. Thanks for watching!

Very informative video. Will use for reference when doing a tuneup
Thanks for watching. Glad I can help!
good job dude!
Thanks for watching!
Be sure to read if your spark plugs require anti-seize lube. Mine stated it was "detrimental". Just a FYI.... Thanks for the video!
You’re absolutely right. Thanks!
dude Thanks man!

@@Ronutzz glad I could help. My Jeep is the first vehicle I ever bought and don’t plan to ever get rid of it. Enjoy!

Only 25k miles is extremely rare. Wow that’s crazy. I think it should be fine, but test drive the new parts and see how it feels on the highway
How has the tune up held up over the year? Would you do anything differently?

Some after market coils don’t preform as good as a MOPAR factory coil 🤦🏼.

Its almost been a year since you posted this video. Do you still recommend those 4 hole injectors? Thanks for the video and the links!
Yes! Jeep runs great and has plenty of power accelerating with bigger tires too
@@franksgarage13 Thanks for the reply, I'll keep the injectors in mind for my '97 TJ. You have a fine looking Jeep!
What year is your jeep?
1999 with 212k miles
Nice i have a 01 with 103000. Its my daily. Im going do what u showed in the video
@@thorfinn2015 it really helps the motor!
i would of took your whole coil bracket of it’s easier as your earth wire on that bracket needs cleaning bad . 👍🏻🇦🇺💯⛽️
Model?
Is the Jeep running cooler with the heat shield?
It started running cooler when I replaced the radiator and thermostat the previous year. The head shield fixes my vapor lock where I would get slow cranking starts after it was hot. Now it starts right up every time no matter how hot the engine. Now the fuel in the fuel line and injectors is cooler
@@franksgarage13 would you recommend the 180• or 195• thermostat?
@@cornershottt5257 195. My temp never even reaches that now, nice and cool
@@franksgarage13 which radiator do you have bro ?
@@cornershottt5257 I just went with the stock radiator on rockauto.com. I replaced the thermostat, water pump, and hoses too. Never made a video on that
