Great! Thank you.
I would like to find a sound 62CJ5 frame/chassis. I’d rather not go the brand new custom route if I don’t have to. Any ideas or advice on how to find one? Thanks!
Will do. Thank you!
I'm reinstalling my double action mechanical fuel pump and having a heck of a time. I thought I paid attention during removal but obviously I missed something. Does the fuel pump arm rest on top of...
Ok thank you. I ended up just buying the flexible hose. Looked things over yesterday and will be taking the fuel pump off this weekend.
I am replacing the oil lines on my 62 CJ5 4-134 F head. I'm still using the oil bath and filter canister which has the two oil lines. One to the timing cover and the other running down to the bottom...
I’m discovering the various modifications to 62 CJ5. I noticed that my dual action fuel pump has both
tubes blocked off. As in plugged/not used. That being the case, I’m wondering if I could just...
The more I do on this Jeep the more questions I have. I was checking the fuel pump and noticed that the two outlets have been plugged off (see pic). I'm finding a lot of modifications to this ole...
Ok sounds good. Thank you. Ha...Jeep. Gotcha.
Thank you!
I started the jeep today just to keep things limbered up. I noticed the engine kind of lobed (like an old tractor) until I popped the accelerator a little. After the engine was warm I slowly started...
Yep. I ended up taking both seats out and just lying on the floorboard. This dash doesn't come out. Doesn't look like it was meant to either. That would have made things a little easier for sure....
Believe it or not, I did enjoy doing this rewire. Wouldn't want to do it again real soon but I did learn more than I thought I ever would. In regard to writing everything down, YOU BET! I saved my...
Just finished the rewire today. I learned a lot! The previous owner did not have a fuse block installed. I added one for ignition, hazard flashers, vehicle lights, running lights, wipers and the...
Thanks a lot for the advice. I do have a pretty decent Fluke meter. I used it to check my new ignition switch before I made up the start/ignition wiring test run. I wanted to be sure the start, IGN,...
Looks like the conversion was accomplished several owners ago. So much so that the gentleman is deceased now. I bought another ignition switch and basically made up an ignition and starter circuit. I...
Just bought a 62 CJ5 last month. 4-134F engine with a 12 volt conversion (solid state ignition). Just trying to find out exactly what I have here. I've been driving the jeep off and on just around...
No doubt! Thanks.
Welcome! I'm a Jeep newbie too. You'll find this a great place to learn and the manuals on the web site are a HUGE help.
Thought I would share this pic. My 62 CJ5 backfired and blew the muffler out. I found an "open" on the secondary circuit of the ignition coil. The distributor was a electronic ignition conversion...
Will do. Thank you for the advice. I did several things yesterday. Checked coil wire for spark at the distributor cap while cranking. Nothing. Did an ohms check on the primary coil circuit and it was...
Will do. Thank you!
I know this is reaching but could anyone possibly ID this distributor? The 62 CJ-5 I recently bought was converted from 6 to 12volts. I'd been having a backfire problem and decided to ohms check the...
Ok thank you! Took the wife for a ride tonight. I'd driven it a few times today already. We drove off and after ten minutes, the Jeep backfired twice and blew the muffler apart. Towed her home and...
Ok great! Thank you for your help.
