It's ok, but you'd make much, much better time on I-90. US 2 is fine
in Eastern WA, but once you get up around Leavenworth you can get
into heavy traffic. Although it is much more scenic than I-90.
From Spokane, I'd take I-90, it is much faster.
so, we have "confirmed":
Alise
John
Wallace
David
pretty likely:
ron
roti
allan
maybe's:
Brad
Mick
need some encouragement:
Eddie,
java joe,
Michael Baxter... :-)
I'll give some thought to where to meet, what to do and so on this
afternoon, have to go out and do some yard work...

GREAT!! looks like Old Blue won't have to pull a trailer if we
decide to bring a barbque!
Bill, could you see if you could locate a Bryan Niese in Wenatchee,
he works for US West over there. He's got an 83 Wagoneer that looks
almost like Old Blue except it doesn't have a sunroof or vinyl top
and was laid over on the driver's side when a road washed out on
him... Haven't heard from him for a long time.
thanx,
john meister
the list:
Alise, w/ Rufus
John, w/ Old Blue
Bill, w/ a 68 J10 from Wenatchee
David, w/ a 68? Wag from Moscow, ID
Wallace, w/ an 83 Wag from Idaho
likely but unconfirmed:
Roti,
Allan,
Ron,
Joe
possible:
Brad,
Mick,
Eddie
(Bryan - off list)
(local lurkers...)
later,

Sounds reasonable. Any rust?
There are some buyers' guides on Off-Road.com FSJ pages...
For an idea of value:
I saw an 83 Wag ltd for 4300 at a ParknSell lot near Woodinville
I just saw an 91 GW on 216th & 99 for 10,999, it has 99,000 miles and
selectrac. has some rust starting... Hunter Green. Nothing
fancy... no sunroof, has the cheap steering wheel instead of the
leather wrapped one like Old Blue has...
So, $2,500 for an 86 doesn't sound too bad at all... If I were to
get another FSJ, I'd be looking at an 86 and up with a sunroof. And,
possibly a pre 68 J-series rig... major project, update, etc. pre
68 is exempt from emissions and if I can find a license plate from
68, exempt from tabs... :-)
You will want to make sure ALL the wiring is secured and protected,
tie it up and tape it up... lots of underhood/dash fires from
rubbing wires... easy to prevent.
(BTW, I'm in Washington state... :-) (and I'm ccing the FSJ-list)
If you're up in the Seattle area, we're having an FSJ-Fest on July
5th. Not sure exactly where or what we're going to do yet though...
Hey, those that are interested, please cc me as well as the list, I'm
still in the DIGEST mode and this is "late-breaking" stuff... :-)
ttyl,
john

(now, if you can come up with an idea that will want my wife and daughter to come along, then you'll have hit a real winner... I haven't even told them about this event yet... I know how they usually receive news like this... "oh. guess we'll go to the mall then..." or something like that. They do not get into wheelin', especially with groups... oh well... However, we've never been to Rainer, so it might be something that will work. the nice thing about rainer is that there are plenty of other things to do there. tourist centers with wild life lectures and tours and even a lodge with food and drink, which is a big plus if you are a family member who is not in to 4 wheeling. I don't know the area real well myself but I have a lead from an uncle on a huckleberry patch that you can drive to. there is a ranger station there of course (not at the huckleberry patch but the mountain:)and they would have maps and descriptions of all the forest roads.I hear there are ice caves there as well, I don't know how they are accessed. I wonder if they have that kind of info on the net somewhere? if you are planning on making flyers up, I would like a copy there are lots of Gw's here in ballard (more so then else where in the city it seems, I think it is a fisherman thing, they all seem to be down by the docks) but anyway since I know where a bunch live I was thinking I could do some direct marketing and drop a flyer on their windshields.

Subject: Bill M.
AFAIK, the buckets and console for the "60's" wags were
only for the Supers. if this wag has the 'gold' lettered 'Super'
just forward of the 'wagoneer' at the rear body sides, and has
3 crome strips down each side, then its a better bet that it
maybe a Super! look also for a vnyl roof.
the only parts to come to mind would be the crome strips
down ea side of the wag. the rubicon did a number on em
last time :(
what state r u in?

Over here there are enough places that won't be full >that aren't too far, most of us are in the north end it seems. Alisa, Nice thought but John's right about the ferries/parks. The 4th is the busiest holiday on the pen. This weekend the ferry "wait" is min. 3hrs each way and it'll be worse on the weekend of the fourth. Fort Worden/Ft Flagler have been filled by 'reservations' for months ahead for the major holidays. Holidays are a bummer over here. The touri plug everything up... John, that's one reason I prolly won't make it. If I fly into sea/tac the 3rd or 4th, do the ferry BS to get home after a month on the boat I'm not likely to throw my sea bag on the floor and turn around and head back to the ferry dock on a holiday weekend. It usually takes two days before I even go to town to get my mail :) The Ice Caves thing sounds cool though ;) I'd definately stick with some place in eastern WA. Those peolple will all be over here, should be pretty lonely on the east side of Puget Sound. Guess I'll just have to meet you folks maybe one or two at a time. Heck, we'll prolly all meet in FSJ rehab someday anyway :) Regards, -jj[Back to Top]

I've driven around the area there and it's 'nice'. Since this isn't a rock crawl type thing, just get a USFS map and go explore! Where you all end up that day is where you camp. I've never been a much of a 'campground' camper and there must be a least a zillion places to put a few rigs and some tents for a night up there.

They way I have done all the other ones is that I get them printed on prepunched paper, put them in a binder, and mail them to you. All this should stay about $50 for this book. If everyone would like, I could just send the paper, but I get a great discount on the binders. A 4" D-ring binder costs me $5. They are really heavy and really good. (Its only $5 when I get the manuals printed, they're normally more). If someone has some other feelings on this let me know. One other note: When we do this, I'll send out a call for checks, and I won't go to the printers until I have ~8 checks. I have to order 10 to get the good price, and I have to pay up front. I don't consider you as having offically ordering a manual until I have your check in my hand. And also I don't have $500+ dollars laying around to put down on it either. Rest assured, if you send me a check, you will get a manual. Hope this clears some things up. Please send me your other questions. Zack Heisey '79 J-10 '79 Cherokee Chief Wide Track William S.

The name of the company is Electromotive, Inc. 14004 -J. Willard Rd. Chantilly VA 22021 Their phone number is:703-378-2444 Their fax number is:703-378-2448 The name of the system is HPV ignition. It is a crankshaft triggered direct fire ignition system. Here is what their literature has to say. Starting with a 60 tooth wheel on the crankshaft and a magnetic sensor, timing accuracy is better than =BC of a degree. Multi coils mean there i= s more time to both charge and discharge the coils. Digitally controlled charging and firing circuitry insurers a constant energy spark from idle to over 9600 rpm. The combination of high energy and long duration yields more complete combustion with fewer misfires, providing the user with more performance and lower emissions. Standard features of all HPV ignition include: =D8 Low cost, self contained and easy to install. =D8 More powerful than standard Mags or C-Ds. =D8 Faster rise time burns through wet plugs. =D8 Longer burn time for more complete combustion. =D8 High resolution triggered eliminates spark scatter. =D8 Engine compartment mountable and ultra reliable. =D8 No mechanical rotors and caps to cross fire and fail. The HPV ignition uses multiple ignition coils and digitally controlled dwell circuits to assure the hottest and most consistent spark possible. Each coil fires two cylinders; one on the compression stroke and one on the exhaust. The exhaust cylinder plug has a lower plug gap ionization potential and, as a result, does not consume appreciable ignition power. The individual coils allow fast and accurate spark ignition; long burn times and high energy levels assure effective burning for improved driveability, increased performance and decreased fuel consumption and emissions. The cost for the basic unit is 499.00. There are other units and options from the company including a unit that is integrated with a fuel injection system. I hope that you all find this helpful. The few articles that I have read about this type of systems have all been very positive. For those out there with the Jeep 4.2l they make a drop in unit that replaces your factory installed carburetor or fuel injection system along with your ignition system with a all new fuel injection system plus the ignition system.

Subject: Re: pages... and FSJ-Fest #2 - PNW
Looks like the Pacific Northwest FSJ-Fest #2 is going to be popular!
So far 2 are coming in from Idaho, one from eastern washington, about
4 here in the puget sound, possibly one or two from Oregon, and maybe
one or two from Northern California, and just maybe, one from
Vancouver BC... Also might be able to contact a couple of the local
FSJ Charter members who are off the list.
Because so many folks are coming from so far, I think we'll stick a
little closer to Snohomish and look to do some wheeling within a
reasonable drive. If the weather is nice, Mt. Pilchuck would be
good. Will continue to do examine options. Time will be limited
since many of the folks coming in will drive up that day. So
whatever we do, we'll have to account for the logistics...
please email me directly and cc the FSJ-list as I'm still in the
Digest mode and might miss a message about the Fest.

Thanks for your help KG > John, could you please forward this to who ever posted this originally since there is no e-mail address or source information? hello KG, I suppose it depends on what part of the country you are in, but I just payed 3,250.00 for one with 150,000mi and about 1,500 worth of work that needs be done + two minor dents. 86GW's in good condition don't usually sell for less then 5000.00 these days. All of the 86's I looked at were in the 4500-5000 range and all had at least a thousand that needed to be put in to them I considered myself quite lucky to get such a deal as I did. for, after the work is done I come out paying the same as I would have for a jeep that still needs a bunch of small things done. yet the one I have will be nearly perfect (w/ a sunroof to boot,) At that price I would be skeptical, of both miles and hidden conditions. If you are not a mechanic I would have it looked over throughly before buying. but it sounds as if it could be an incredible deal, what part of the world are you in?

Tom,
I can appreciate that. Hey, I drove down there in 92... We must
have passed each other somewhere along the coast...
Well, at least I got to meet you down there. I enjoyed it immensely.
It's very nice down there, and you've got a very nice jeep, even if
it is missing a couple of doors, and cylinders... :-) I just wish
that my camera hadn't messed up on the shot of your wide track
straddling that one wash, and the shot of all three of us together...
The camera got traded in for a couple cheaper bodies... So far they
are working out ok.

Hey Bill,
What do they want for the console??? What color is it? If it's not
too expensive and not too much bother, perhaps you could retrieve it
for me and bring it with you for the FSJ-fest... Let me know
what it's like...
oh, to answer the question, you need to look at the serial number,
I think 1414D is the key... The D indicates a Super.

No, I didn't, but it's not going anywhere for a week or so, the heads

Zack, this is the kind of thing that I think would be PERFECT for putting
on the web! That way, one could access everything instantly without the
need for slaughtering poor defenseless little trees in mass quantities.
Not to cut into your business... hey, I'm sure some folks would like to
have the whole thing in print, perhaps we could rig up something where we
could fax sections, etc... ideas? comments? flames? NOT

Ah, how about special high density gauze, encased in metal mesh, as per
K&N construction, vs. a piece of foam.
And how much gets AROUND the foam?
>let's see, one million miles versus lifetime, which one is longer?
>:-)
Gee, if your motor blows up in a week because you suck water into it....
>The difference in use is more likely the difference in distribution.
>I'm sure there'd be more in use if they were sold in more stores.
Nope. K&N developed the distribution to meet demand, not the other way
around. K&N has been around a long time.

>Now, let's compare a Rolls to a Chevy. Is the Chevy better because

Gee, if you ask some Chevy guys, they'd probably say Chevy. More
availability of performance parts, replacement parts, easy to modify,
cheaper. Hmm, exact same reasons they give for why they think Chevy is
better than Ford. Hmm...
>Sometimes facts only confuse people.
You should know... <grin>. Like I said, if ya wanna prove it, take you,
Old Blue, and your Amsoil filter and come on down here to Florida and play
in the goo with me, Timex, and the K&N filter.
If ya ain't willing to risk your motor, then it ain't no good, no matter
what you quote. Let's see YOU run in water up to your hood and keep water
out of the motor.
I've done it, I have pictures showing how deep I routinely run, not to
mention the REALLY deep stuff. In more than one truck.
Come on, John.... put yer motor where yer mouth is, or shut up... <grin>.
Will he accept the challenge?
