Hi everyone, you may remember the Cherokee that I installed the 4JB1TC in last year. It now has
over 30,000km on it with no problems. Increasing the intake pipe from 1.5 to 2.25 inches and crankin
the pump a quarter turn made a noticable improvment on power.
So now I'v started the next conversion and have the engine sitting in the frame on its new mounts.
Still waiting for time to get the adapter plate finnished but have been working on figuring out the wiring for both the Dakota (1999 4X4 club cab) computer and the 4HF1 computer. Looks like this was the last year before full computer control
of the 4H motor and it only controlls warm up, EGR and exaust brake. I could basically run it without the ECM but will see if I can get it to work.
The big problem so far is that the engine is 24 volt and the Dodge is 12 volt, I would like to keep my 24 volt alt since it has the vacuum pump built onto it
and like the rest of the motor only has a few thousand miles on it. Any ideas?
I had to install a three inch body lift kit in order to get starter clearance but that just gives me the excuse to put BIG tires on it. smile
I will try and get a web page up in the next few weeks for those that want to follow along.

BFN
Randy
