just moved to here form the cherokee forum. picked up a yj from a guy for 1800. it is a 2.5. runs pretty good rebuilt about 20,000 miles ago odometer reads 140,000. i have two problems.
1st when driving, there is a ticking but maybe almost a scratching noise. it happens in all the gears and gets kind of loud when the rpms get low. when it is shifted into 5th gear it gets really bad, i think that i have only had it in 5th gear two times because of it.
2nd this has happened to me two times now, when i would try to turn the jeep on it seemed like the key was very hard to turn. no problem starting just hard to turn key. when i got it to turn, both times when i shut the jeep off and take the key out, it would still be running. i had to turn the key on and off a few times before it would actually shut off.
any sugesstions would be great
