Ok,

So my truck needs the plenum upgrade done, full tune up and timing chain (might as well do the water pump if I do the timing chain).

My question is, I have to prioritize and do the most important thing first due to a lack of money. What would you do first? I would also do a cap+rotor at the same time of the plenum...

Thanks!

 

because i'm lazy, i'd limp by and save money and do them all at once. no point in stripping the top and/or front of the engine twice.

 

x10!!!!

 

Yes, do it all at once!!! It'll put your truck down for a little while, but it is so much easier! The Cap and Rotor are all the way in the back, behind the intake manifold. Do it all at once, and save some time, and your back as well.

 

Yup!!! All at once!!! You should have made this a poll. That would have been interesting.

 

Agree will everyone above me. It will save you from taking it back apart agin.

 

Damn! I was expecting a lot of plenum responses! The consensus makes total sense. I leave Alaska in April for New Mexico, so maybe I will just leave it for the warm weather!! Thanks guys! Wife will be happy!

It runs great! Just no power and I know the plenum is blown...oil down throttle body. If its been like this for awhile, I wouldnt assume anything to go wrong by April, but I guess its 10 years old... Only 92k miles

 

I would do them BEFORE your trip!

 

Driving the Jeep out...it gets like 26 mpg hwy. Truck gets shipped for free...gotta love the military!

 

Sounds good to me.
