OK READY FOR THIS

IMMA JEEP GUY

CAN EXPLAIN THE PROCEDURE WELL

I DO NOT KNOW SPECIFICS OF YOUR RIG.I CAN SORTA SEND PICS OF A JEEP CJ W/ 258 6 CYL---YOU WILL HAVE TO "TRANSLATE" TO YOUR RIG--WORKS THE SAME FOR ALL CYLINDERS

LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE GAME

OK LET GO TO THIS POST

https://www.2carpros.com/questions/1980-jeep-cj7-v8-wont-start

THEN GO TO THIS PART OF THE POST

"Replied on December 31, 2010"----AND READ THE NEXT TWO ENTRIES I MADE TO THIS JEEP CJ 7 304 (V-8) POST...HE HAD TO TRANSLATE ALSO FROM MY "6" TO HIS "8"

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO TURN THE ENGINE OVER WITH THE STARTER---THIS CAN PROBABLY BE DONE WELL USING A 1/2 DRIVE RATCHET ON THE
HARMONIC BALANCER BOLT

LET ME KNOW IF YOU NEED HELP---PICS HELP ALSO
