In the obstacle course I decided to screw shifting and left it in first gear
4-hi. That's how I found the rev limiter.

Considering that my XJ is box stock basic (speedo and gas gage), I'll
take whatever I can get! <G>

Are the computers different between the XJ and the JGC? Does anyone
have any idea just how different the vehicles electronics are? It would
be neat if I could get that stuff working but not the end of the world
if I can't.

It looks like the temp sensor is just a $20 part, so that shouldn't be
bad at all.

Actually one of my biggest concerns is how to support the thing.

Ahh, nothing like another challenge <G>

Thanks!
