Jeep Cherokee XJ Vacuum Line Overview

[@zoexj4872]

Wow. I don't have a Renix XJ, mine's a 96, but I'm sure this video will be like gospel to those who do and are in need of hose routing. Great job.

[@runningoverland7656]

Hey, thanks! I really appreciate it.

[@maniacalmonster2293]

yeah this guy does a hose routing great but he’s like the only one on the Internet that does it for any Jeep! I’m hoping to find one for my 2004 but I gave up. I’ve been looking for my damn leak for four days now

[@Gigagoalie]

Amen!

[@nathanmccumber8965]

​​@@runningoverland7656 I got no a/c leak I recharge it blowing hot air I do have evap leak. Do u got video for a/c if so can send me link. I got 98 xj

[@NormanconEVE]

This is a god send of a video hah. I have found some diagrams online but this sure sums up literally everything.

[@gregpatterson3834]

89 Comanche I have had all vacuum lines missing so yea not sure if you still check on your video but it came in tremendously helpful ! Thanks brother!!

[@James-wo5nb]

Bought my 90 limited and half of these lines are either missing or plugged, this video is solid gold, so hard to make sense of the diagrams on google images. Thanks for the video.

[@Gigagoalie]

I am exactly the same. Also got a 90's 4.0 Limited XJ and now crawling across the internet looking for info to understand what I got myself into :)

[@HughJazzGaming]

Saved an issue on my 1990 Jeep xj. LInes from previous owner were all over. R.O. is a must. Awesome Video

[@erikwest6505]

Thank you. My 89 was saved from the scrap yard, the previous owner had all the vacuum lines messed up or disconnected. Now it’s under the dash, he thought he was a mechanic he’s not Great video! Thanks

[@jackbower8671]

I'm so happy I found this! My 46004 has a massive leak and results sometimes in no-starts. Thank you!

[@johnvictorramses1]

Not sure if you're still tracking your channel, but this vid is a life saver. All my vac lines were cracked or missing when I bought my 1990 xj. Few vids on renix systems and fewer (like me) know how to work on them. Thanks for this vid!

[@roypayne4811]

Thanks for posting this video. I have a 96 Cherokee with hoses dangling and missing altogether. This video should help solve some mysteries.

[@tjl5055]

Thanks a ton man. I just swapped my 88 Cherokee and in all my excitement, I snapped a ton of vacuum lines. Bought some aftermarket lines and rigged them all in. Jeep runs awesome now.

[@j.r.n4evg111]

Man this video is great. I had mine “89 Cherokee” all goofed up. Thank you!

[@raulreneromerobarran2036]

I have just installed both part successfully cause there was only an isolated line to nowhere. Excelent video!

[@gulupunia2813]

This was a very useful and simple video. Thanks.

[@ciinyk_4435]

This video is solid gold. Thanks boss!

[@danielsmith4676]

Thank you man I been looking for a video like this I bought a 89 Jeep and the vacuum lines were all caved in tape and plastic stubbed in them

[@LEGIT_KILL]

I have an 89 with some bad lines.. this video good to follow?

[@wyattoneable]

I just bought a 1987 XJ and a lot of the vacuum lines are just hanging around and not connected. This helps a lot, thanks!

[@rockscratchers2972]

Great video! Helped a brother out big-time

[@neshobanakni]

I keep watching Jeep videos to plug my vacuum leaks. Nobody bothers to tell which engine or trans!

[@escobaroutdoors3693]

Thanks for this stuff. Still helping to this day

[@PissedPython256]

Thanks bro, your a life saver

[@RastusMcbride]

Very helpful thing you did here, thanks. Still working tho on that last one on the pass side... dark, bouncing thing.

[@Fyc0n]

Thanks for pointing out the majority of the lines, very useful as a sanity check. I've been trying to ensure my 88 has all of its connections correct. Unfortunately at 4:02 "here's two more, idk where they go" - I also do not know where they go. They're both just dangling in my 88.

@@redwanr.4162 from my understanding that vacuum ball just controlls your ac and heat seltor switches. if you have a leak or something is hooked up worng your air will allways blow defrost... now i could be wrong im only 19 and still learning.

[@kenxiong6830]

Thanks for saving my ass!!!! I had to do the dreaded cracked exhaust manifold swap along with a head gasket job. I figured I’d be able to remember where all the vacuum hoses went but couldn’t figure out a few. You saved me a lot of headache

[@justinybarra7331]

Damn bro. Your saved my ass. Thanks. I have this "unique" renix setup.

[@bonespur2728]

This video saved me! thank you. It's hard to identify lines from the diagrams when its already all boofed.

[@marydixon1813]

Thank you I needed a video like this! I have been going back to watch this because I'm trying to find a vacuum leak in my 1998 if you have any suggestions on where it may be please leave a time in the video!! Thank you it would help me a lot .

[@runningoverland7656]

Thank you! I'd be thrilled to help but it's really hard to diagnose without being there. I've known people who have a vape pen, or some other kind of smoke you can control, and then lightly blow it around vacuum lines where they connect - if you see any get sucked in you've found it! That, or if you can't hear a whistle and have a rough idle it might be a dirty IAC Valve or Throttle Body! I've mistaken that for a vacuum line in the past. Let me know how it goes!! I may not have the answer but happy to brainstorm!

[@luismejia4744]

Buenas noches, la jeep cherokee del 87 motor 6 cilindros en línea automático lleva válvula PCV?

[@Kittieized]

Thank you!! I had dropped my 89 MJ off at what I thought was a reputable shop for some work...but it sat there untouched for 2 yrs. I just finally picked it up and it’s missing a bunch of this stuff. It’s been so long I didn’t remember what plugged into where.

[@Neostouve67]

Merci beaucoup !

[@chikorita181]

Bro this an amazing video!! Thank you soo much

[@zachnelson2815]

I just replaced the two part numbers you give but do you know what the other part numbers are? I need to replace those as well

[@outboundterrain6454]

I'm sure my 88 Comanche EGR is toast. Gonna Change out before I go to Cali nanny smog station. Thx for the vid...

[@Gadsden45]

You are an angel

[@runningoverland7656]

Thank you so much! I made it in an Instagram story format originally, hence the jump cuts. Hope it helps! Any and all suggestions or questions are always welcome. And if I don't know an answer, maybe we can find it together!

[@dustinparrott4677]

Awesome video. I was wondering what the canister thing in your video is called

[@airborneleads1981]

Awesome video. Seriously

[@cousin_JACK]

Thank you, seriously, working on my pops 88 like yours, can the charcoal canister be done away with, what are you thoughts

[@Ozarkwonderer]

crazy....I have none of it....off that breather hose

[@tarenburkett8979]

Is this for a grand? What year is this? Are the older (early 90 models) engine bays litte different from the later ones?

[@miniemouse2750]

En el minuto 2:02 allí en mi jeep renix sólo tiene para conectar una manguera

[@samuelbenitez5886]

Thank you.👌🏻

[@johnpadilla362]

Hey great video! I watched someone else's but it didn't pan out. Yours is a bit better and more visual. I was wondering if the line that goes from the manifold to the vacuum canister at the back of the front bumper, does the end that goes out of or into the manifold have a check valve on yours? Mine looks just like yours. Some say there should be a check valve there.

[@patricklg3880]

Could these vaccuum line result into why my vents aren't working? Only frost vents work and blows hot or cold air whichever I choose.

[@rileyfaber7910]

What do I do with the lines that go into the air box if I have an aftermarket intake and no air box

[@VTSZAC]

I have an 88 Cherokee and recently found little drops of oil on the air filter in the air box, im pretty sure its from the 46004 line but should i be worried or is it normal? Great videooo!!!

[@ryanbutz6225]

What's the thing that's bolted to the driver's side fender on the inside? I have bolt holes where that used to be there, but the previous owner took it out and now the vacuum lines have nothing to go to.

[@bigbadassballer71]

Cannister that holds pressure for cruise control and hvac

[@addisonlarsen4495]

Dude I just bought my first xj and it isn’t running. Guy said it just needed wiring harness, and I’m seeing a lot more things that it needs lol

Hi friends ,

[@randyanderson6110]

Would have helped a lot if you would have removed the throttle body to airbox boot so we could have seen the vacuum hose routing.

what sensor is that line running to at 1:59 my 88 comanche is missing that

[@arkoluna]

😊

[@miniemouse2750]

Muy buen vídeo y ¿el arnés delantero? Todavía lo venden. Porque mi jeep renix 87 ya le he hecho muchos remiendos y todavía funciona bien, ojalá no se termine de dañar porque así se jode todo. Si alguien tiene alguna respuesta de dónde conseguir otro arnés en buena hora, gracias, buen video bro

[@gregpatterson3834]

1A-Auto sells both right side and left side

[@rayoliver7244]

,all these rubber elbows and plastic vac lines last about 6 to 8 years if you do not treat them with ARMAR. ALL this will keep them in shape for 12 years!

[@cherylkirk7242]

Check PCV Valve..

How in God’s name do you get that hose on the back of the air intake? I gave up.

[@ihaveastoma3869]

2:33 and the top left? you skipped it entirely

[@zdoran01]

At the 3:50 mark, do you or anyone else know what the vacuum line running to that ball does? I have a 1989 Comanche and that particular line is not hooked up and there is a plug on the engine side of the vacuum line. Doesn't seem to cause any issues. I appreciate any info..

[@CastusTroy]

It's the vaccum canister it holds vaccum. It's for your vents and cruise control. I'm still trying to figure mine out in my 88 mj. I just picked up the ball today but mine only has one hook up hole for it. I only had one hose dangling down there so I assumed that's what it went to

[@zdoran01]

@@CastusTroy Starting to make sense why air only comes out of my defrost vents...

[@CastusTroy]

@@zdoran01 ya that's what I figured but my vents still wont blow only defrost and my ac stopped too but compressor still runs

[@zdoran01]

David Eifling on my vacuum canister there were two ports. One for the vacuum line and one I believe was electrical. Had to plug both in. Also the vacuum line had a T splitter with one end open. I plugged everything in and plugged the open end of the T splitter. That seemed to do the trick. We’ll see what other issues it may cause. Hopefully this may help you, best of luck my friend!

[@CastusTroy]

@@zdoran01 ya I only had one line I have an 88 manche. What's weird is my vents worked with out the ball so that's why I bought the ball and still nadda. I've replaced all vaccum lines so I dunno what's up. Is yours a renix also? Was wondering if thre was a way you can send a pic of your vaccum setup. I didn't find a wiring connector for mine.
