#71 of 74 '90 Trooper won't start on incline by tiptopsu Oct 21, 2009 (3:18 pm)
I am the new owner of a 90 Trooper, carburated V6, manual trans. Getting used to the clutch, I let it die on an incline on several occasions. It refuses to start again on the incline.  Coasted back down to flat ground and it took several minutes before starting.  What would be causing this?? Thanks..

my 1998, 3.0 citation td lwb, when i start it up from cold, after 10-20 seconds the revs drop very low and smoke bellows out of the exhaust and this lasts for approx 10-15 seconds, then it revs up again and the smoke clears and its fine thereafter. Has anybody else had this problem ? many thanks

Replying to: jw_downtime (Sep 17, 2009 8:06 am) I had this type of problem and it ended up being a short in the engine wiring harness. It is common on this vehical because the run the harness across the top of the engine and sits directly on a hot surface.
#74 of 74 01 Trooper will not turn over by gwilsonh1973 Nov 04, 2009 (10:20 am)
Hi, I drove my Trooper to the store today and had to get it towed home. I turned the key and I got nothing. The dash lights would light up, but that is it. I already have a 3 day old, new battery, and have had the alternator checked. I thought that it might be the solenoid, but I tried jumping it and I only got sparks. So, I know that I am getting fire to the starter. I wanted to check the solenoid before I dropped the starter. Since it will not jump off the solenoid, that leads me to believe that the starter is locked up. Is there something else that I may be missing before I drop the starter? It is like putting the car in gear and trying to crank it. I get dash lights but no response, what so ever. If it is the starter, can I get around dropping the exhaust manifold? Thanks.
