Jeep distributer spacer - 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee

run the fault codes
check ignition timing is not too far advanced
have a compression test done to check for valve seat insert loose.

The Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP) is mounted to the transmission bellhousing at the left/rear side of the engine block...






Inatallation: 4.0L Engine
New replacement sensors will be equipped with a paper spacer glued to bottom of sensor. If installing (returning) a used sensor to vehicle, a new paper spacer must be installed to bottom of sensor. This spacer will be ground off the first time engine is started. If spacer is not used, sensor will be broken the first time engine is started.

New Sensors: Be sure paper spacer is installed to bottom of sensor. If not, obtain spacer PN05252229.

Used Sensors: Clean bottom of sensor and install spacer PN05252229.

1. Install sensor into transmission bellhousing hole.
   
2. Position sensor wire shield to sensor.
   
3. Push sensor against flywheel/drive plate. With sensor pushed against flywheel/drive plate, tighten mounting bolt to 7 Nm (60 inch lbs.) torque.
   
4. Route sensor wiring harness into wire shield.
   
5. Connect sensor pigtail harness electrical connector to main wiring harness.

Hope helps (remember to rate and comment this free answer).

The Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor is mounted to the transmission bellhousing at the left/rear side of the engine block. The sensor is adjustable and is attached with one bolt. A wire shield/router is attached to the sensor.

REMOVAL

1. Disconnect sensor pigtail harness (3-way connector) from main engine wiring harness.
2. Remove sensor mounting bolt.
3. Remove wire shield and sensor.

HI
This is a ride hight spacer to reinstall jack up jeep to take weight off of spring ,, put spacer in place and let jack down

I put these on my jeep and I had bought a set of spring compressors for doing struts on cars for around $40. Used them to compress the springs untill I could remove them and slid the spacers on and reinstalled the springs.

I'm confussed; you post your problem in the Jeep 1995 Grand Cherokee area, but say us that you have an Jeep Cherokee SE... :-S

For solve this subject, maybe you need review the fuse box in the correct Jeep model:
- Jeep Cherokee (Page 3-5 Fuse Block / Page 15-17 Power Distribution Center)
- Jeep Grand Cherokee (Page 7 Fuse Block / Page 9 Power Distribution Center)

I hope help you with this (remember rated this help) Good lick.

Wires just pull out of the top of the cap. Do them one at a time and you won't have a problem putting them back.(they just push into each hole.)

Biggest problem on that truck is the crank sensor, it will fail intermittantly and give you the problem you describe. It is located in the bellhousing of the transmission directly behind the cylinder head and below the firewall. I can tell you how to check it, but since you are throwing parts at the problem, put a crank sensor on it. I'm willing to bet that will take care of it. They usually come with a paper spacer on the bottem to keep it from contacting the flywheel, and if it does, just set the spacer on the flywheel and tighten the bolt, if there is no spacer, make sure the sensor isn't touching the flywheel or it will break the sensor as soon as you turn the key. Hope this helps.
Good luck
