Already been to two different Chrysler/Jeep mechanics and they had
considerably less to offer in the way of a fix except to charge me
exorbitant fees and wanted to replace my muffler for $1600.

Maybe. I do not know. But he has won several awards for his probe, so
there must be something different about it.

Again, he has all the DRB and other diagnostic tools. He has more than
any of the Chrysler/Jeep dealerships in the area.

The repairs are per acceptance of the insurance company, so I am
restricted to who can make repairs. Also, this guy has already been
paid for some parts and must warranty his work. Especially for the PCM
he already replaced should it be defective.

I'm sure for $400 he'd like you to believe it's different, but it's still just a
current clamp. Can't help but wonder if he makes more money fixing cars or
selling probes...

In an earlier post you said YOU weren't going to pay for anymore replacement
parts. Why are YOU paying for stuff that's supposedly covered by your insurance?

Something smells bad here...

Re: 1993 GC Limited - I Miss My Jeep!!
 

Seems like my additional question didn't come thru, so here it is
again...

In regards to the 19 GC Ltd PCM, are they interchangeable?
I have conflicting responses to this. On the one hand, I've been told
the 93 is interchangeable with the 94-95, but just needs to be
programmed. On the other hand I've been told the 93 computer is a
specific model and limited to that year. Can anyone shed some light?

I'd love to resolve my jeep issue and right now all fingers are
poiting to a faulty replacement computer (pull from another 93?) but
the tech is having trouble locating another 93. I'm having some
trouble swallowing the difficulty in locating a replacement.

All info greatly appreciated!
