Hi Steve,
You need the Netscape browser. ;-)
It's as technical as you may want, is there a question you have on
your car and I'll pull a couple of pages for an example.

Re: Service manual's on CD (via eBay) - any good?
I got mine from someone on Ebay but it's been so long, let me do
some checking tonight after I get home from work, maybe I can find the
sellers name if I dig into "my ebay" deep enough.
The CD itself definitely does not look "Official" but the contents do.

Re: Service manual's on CD (via eBay) - any good?
Thanks Bill,
I have no 'GREAT' issues currently. Just sorta planning ahead.
My fuel guage has played a couple tricks in the past 5months.
It's only done this twice....upon starting the TJ (2002 btw!), I may not
notice it right away but when I do, the fuel guage is indicating empty and
the fuel light is on. I just turn off the engine and restart and it has
corrected itself so far.
No consistancy with respect to temps/humidity or recent mud bogging and
after washing....
It's not even an nuisance right now since it's only happened a couple of
times and has been correctable.
i know guys (mikeR) have talked about the grounding and the dash connector.
But this is the only gauge on the dash that does this. So, I'm not sure!
No engine light comes or anything....
tips?!
thanks again
