Besides bookmarking the individual post you could print what you need. I have done that and keep a folder of those print outs.

Fuel Systems. / Re: SolVac for all Eagles?

Thank you!

According the documentation I am sure my Eagle has a BBD carb.
Now I need to find out why I have only a Solenoid with a wire and not a combined one with electrical and vaccum push.

Fuel Systems. / SolVac for all Eagles?
« Last post by krimmth on Yesterday at 07:00:33 AM »
Hi,

Currently I try to solve some issues with the carb (258 engine)
I saw that my eagle has no SolVac installed, I believe it is a 83 or 84 Canadian produced version for the European market.

Is it possible that there is no SolVac installed in my eagle but only an electric one?
I found no vaccum connection and no loose vaccum line around the carb.

Thanks

I grew up in the northern Midwest, I have worked in a body shop, my dad owns an automotive restoration shop, and I have completely restored one vehicle with two others planned. Needless to say, I have seen and done my fair share of restoration of parts and paint and bodywork. I can help answer paint/primer/bodywork/bedliner questions.

Needless to say, I have seen and done my fair share of rust repair to a show quality level. I have pictures with the correct way to repair rust and can help walk people through it, just reach out!


I also have helped build body mounts for other projects and have built a bumper for my Jeep, so I am familiar with heavier metal too.

Transmissions / Jeep Cherokee XJ and Comanche MJ Transmissions and GM Transmissions

I grew up in a GM house, so I am familiar with the advantages/disadvantages of the TH350, TH400, 700R4, 200R4, 4L60, and 4L80 and could offer basic help with swapping any of those in an Eagle. Since I have been driving, most of my experience is with Jeep Comanches and Cherokees, which have the AW4, Peugeot BA10-5, and AX-15. They had other transmissions too, but those three are the ones I know the most about. I have a friend who is big into the AMC 2.5 powered Jeeps, so I could reach out to him for assistance with the AX-4 and AX-5.

From my experiences with Jeeps and Eagles, I have acquired a considerable amount of knowledge about NP231Js, NP128s, NP129s, NP228s, NP229s, and I have a fair bit of knowledge about NP242s, NP241Cs, and NP207s when it comes to interchangeability and years where differences occurred.

I also have a sound understanding of various rear axle swaps along with the workings of the CAD axle disconnect system in the front axles of some of our Eagles.

Feel free to reach out and I can provide support.
