Not sure if you're still around, did you ever find a solution to your Trooper problem? I have an 89' 2.8 TBI with the same symptoms...only now it's been sitting at a mechanics for awhile (not a good mechanic, and by awhile...I mean a little over a year) So now that the fire is under my a**, I'm in desperate need to just get it fixed. It's at a new mechanics now :-/. I believe the fuel throttle body and distributor are to blame. Sinking more money into this Trooper is getting scary! Let me know if you have any insight. I'm a girl so if my "auto repair lingo" is not correct then please go easy on me...I'm trying!

Actually, my trooper is still sitting at the meachanic's place also. No, I have not found the simple absolute answer to my problem but most likely will get it towed in a month or so and most likely will have the engine overhauled, (meaning a rebuilt short block) at about $1500.000 which is a lot less than the mechanic was going to charge be to install a used engine %4,000.00
 
Sorry I am not able to add any insight to what your problem might be...still dealing with finding answer.

Rattles in Rear by jake1216

I have a 2002 Trooper Ltd. Today for the first time, while driving, I heard this rattling in the rear cargo area. It got louder as I accelerated. At first I thought it was something vibrating against something or I had picked up a branch. But when I got out to look I couldn't see anything. Then, while still idling, I could hear the "rattling" near the driver's side of the rear wheel. What could it be?

Thanks for the reply! I never did find the answer. I replaced the distributor and throttle body. I suspect it was the timing belt. Argh, I had to sell it! Glad you were able to avoid getting ripped off!

1986 Trooper II Help ! by mparrott624

Just bought Trooper II Diesel and drove 8-10 miles lost power and quit ? Will not start back ? I changed fuel filter and fuel. I fell in love with this Trooper and now just heart broke over it. I don't know very much at all about Diesel Engine. Can't afford mechanic. If all else fails what motor(s) will fit. I have a Toyota T-100, and heard a 22 R motor will fit. I will be grateful for any advice. thanks Mike Parrott TN

TBI no fuel by rlpearce

Sorry to be a little lengthy here but I'll try to give you as much information as I can so that you can hopefully help. I recently replaced the 2.8 engine in my friends 89 Trooper with a new "pickled" 91 engine he had purchased. The engine was complete with all accessories and appeared absolutely identical to the 89 engine. Installation went straight forward but when I tried to start it there was no fuel coming from the injectors. A few drops into the throttle body and it fired instantly but of course then died. There is pressure to the TBI and voltage to the injectors when the key is on. With the injector connectors removed there is 14v on one wire and 11v on the other, the same for both injector connectors. Seems strange to me, thought one should be going to ground at the ECM. Also, while checking with the key on I discovered (by getting zapped) that the coil is producing steady high voltage output current without the engine turning! What's with that? I tried to check for codes but with the key on there's no check engine light on. Bulb's good, power to it, but no ground connection. The wiring diagram says it grounds at the ECM. I drove this vehicle into the shop so it seems unlikely that the problem is the ECM but I don't have another one handy to check it. Any thoughts? I'd really like to finish this for my friend before his warranty on the new engine expires.

Transmition jolt. by attoe2
Oct 24, 2009 (9:58 am)

My transmition in my 2001 trooper 2wd is giving me a hard jerk we I go to leave for work first thing in the morning, or if it has been sitting a long time. If I let the car warm up for about 5 to ten minutes, it will not do it. It only does it after I have started the car cold and do not warm it up. It does not do it driving down the road, or the rest of the day, as long as the car has not been sitting for a while. Any info would be helpful.
Thanks.

00 Trooper Auto Trans Safety Switch by 00troopers
Nov 15, 2009 (7:17 pm)
Reply
My 2000 Trooper takes about 15 seconds to get out of park after pressing the brake while running. Could the safety switch or relay need replacing? If so can the safety switch be replaced? Also while the shifter is in D, if the handle is bumped slightly it will drop down into third without the selector actually getting to that position. Is it possible to adjust the linkage to prevent this? I also noticed that the dash selector doesn't always display the selector position although it will be within one gear. Obviously somethings not quite right here but I would apprectiate some input.
thanks,
