Title: *pic request* 94-95 YJ 2.5 engine bay, or other years
Post by: Mr_Random on July 07, 2008, 10:59:59 PM
I've got the Wiring harness for my MPI swap, and would like to get a visual of how it should be placed, I already have an idea, but it would help alot!

Also, if possible I would like to see the points under-dash where the engine harness runs through the firewall.

This will be fun, because I have an XJ...

PLEASE and THANKS!

Any specific areas you want?
Mainly just the wiring harnesses?

7" foreward and still more room in front than my XJ!!

I hope you aren't running the starter off of those seconary posts! It draws way too many amps for those!

I would still like other pictures, just get carried away with it! Anything more helps for sure!

thanks guys!

There were very subtle changes from 1991-1995.5 in the YJ otherwise they're all the same.

I run my accessories like AUX lights and fan wiring through the grommet for the throttle cable.  You can see two smaller loom passing through there.

OMG, is that big fat thing on the passenger side your A/C compressor and such? I know newer XJ's have a neat little box with everything for the A/C (but a separate compressor), but it sits right where the YJ battery is.

It seems I have a bit more width room than you guys, but that doesn't aid me in any way...

My Throttle cable are oriented opposite of the MPI setup, but I have seen a writeup around dealing with updating from a renix head/manifold/TB/Injectors to a HO setup where he had to reroute them like I'll have to do... I'll look for it...

Once again, any and all pictures will help! I'm a visual person and will appreciate everything!

LOL, I don't run off the side posts - but they are perfectly capable of running anything but a winch.  I'm guessing you havn't owned many cars, at least half of mine have been side post type setups.

The big compressor on the passengerside is a York compressor setup for OBA.  Actually, there is a lot of room in a YJ.  You can stuff a V8 in there easily.  (easier then with an XJ.)  It's just how all pictures taken from the front look.  If you could hover over the engine compartment and shoot straight down, you'd be able to see that there is a lot of room.

BTW: the big grommet (AUX Harness area) is where the throttle cable comes through the firewall.

in reference to the secondary posts; I know that many vehicles use side post batteries, I'm a bit young, but not dumb... well, most of the time... Were you just repairing your jeep at the time and had them off or something?

Ah, I am a noob... should of thought about it being OBA...

Well... I still would like different angles, and under dash if possible. Everyone likes showing off their jeep, I know you guys can do it! haha...
