Just bought a 1988 4.0 Cherokee, had a few questions
Hey everyone,
I bought a 1988 4.0 Jeep Cherokee on a whim - $600, seems to run well aside
from an exhaust manifold (or gasket) creating a bit of noise.
My questions: What kind of power does the 4.0 engine put out? I see lots of
info on 91-04 engine specs, but they are the MPI, not sure if this one is
TBI or what..
If everything but the engine sucks on the truck, how hard would it be to
swap that 4.0 into my 89 YJ with the 4.2? My only complaint about the
beast...
I don't want to steal the engine from it if it's driveable... It would be
nice to have a second vehicle to drive and give me a chance to rebuild the
YJ, so any other advice on getting that XJ up and running would be
appreciated!
Regards,
Chris

You may not want to make the swap as the computer and all the
injection stuff is from france.
