So I fixed my uncles Jeep Cherokee today...

After pulling the whole fuel system apart, draining the tank of its 5 year old petrol (smelt absolutely rank) with my Uncle a few weeks ago. Today I was about to put it all back together... but had a sudden decision to check out the in-tank fuel pump.

Was the reason why no petrol was getting to the engine. Replaced the tube, threw the tank back in, with the help of my uncle, then connected all the wires, fuel lines, bled the system and it fired right up!

There's something very satisfying about making something work, especially when it hasn't run for 2 years.

Now we find out if it moves... then head to an MOT to find out what else needs fixing... Yay...

:-D
