I just finished up! I finally got my new 78 Cherokee Wagoneer, that i just got a few days ago for $300 bucks, running, and running Well! She started up before but would stall and ran like crap. I dropped the gas tank and cleaned it out (there was quite a bit of water in there), replaced the fuel filter, took off the carb and cleaned it up good, and replaced a few vaccum hoses, and now she runs like a champ. Well, i just thought id share my excitment, later all;)
Oh yeah does anyone have a copy of the vacuumm diagram that is in the technical library of this site, because the link there is bad and wont work. Thanks again guys.

Yes, I got it. I'll e-mail it because I haven't a clue how to put the jpeg in the reply.

Congrats!!! http://www.ifsja.org/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.ifsja.org/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.ifsja.org/ubb/biggrin.gif Keep it up... the 'bug' is fresh... let it root DEEP in your soul and never let it die!!!!! http://www.ifsja.org/ubb/wink.gif

Make sure the PO used QT fluid in the QT.... if not DRAIN IT NOW AND PUT QT FLUID IN IT....Many used ATF for a sub for QT fluid, BAD MISTAKE unless you have a P/T kit.... just a heads up...
