what the hell?

Did you bleed the system after replacing the slave cylinder? The air has to be bled from the line. DOT 3 brake fluid should be in the clutch master cylinder. Bleed it till all the air bubbles are out.

If it is not engaging the starter check that the switch on the clutch pedal is being contacted when the clutch pedal is depressed.

flush first, replace if that does not work. No leaks? Thermostat OK? No steam fro tailpipe?

To check the transmission level remove the dipstick and check to see how much fluid is on the dipstick, it will have a line to indicate full or anything below this line will need to add fluid. The vehicle should be warm with the temperture gauge above 180, and the vehicle should be running to get the proper reading. The fluid should be a bright red color anything darker may need changing, depending on the interval indicated in the owners manual.

your latch is probably broken. your going to have to take the interior panel off the hatchback and look for any broken connection. if there is a broken connection, it should only be like twenty bucks to fix

all you need to do is unhook the negative terminal for one minute and it will reset the computer are you sure its not the alternator thats bad ??

try a NEW battery ,minimum 74amp hour heavy duty with 15 plates per cell

Change the coolant temp sensor - the one in the thermostat housing that sends information to the ECU

I am 99% that is what is wrong.

If they filled the system back up and the clutch on the compressor is engaging then your system should be pushing the R-134 around. If it is not cold you probably have a bad expansion control valve. This valve regulates how much and how fast the R-134 passes through. If it is not working correctly that is probably the cause.

The stock oil drain plug size isa 5/8 or 16 mm....But that doesnt mean that is the size or that the plug wasnt replaced ....your best bet would be to purchase or bring with you under the jeep a socket or wrench set from ten mm to 19 mm set ( 10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19) and go from there...hope i helped.....

Pretty much a simple thing...unbolt old one, making note of how linkage and cable was attached and put new one in it's place. Use the dirty area around the mount as a guide for positioning the new one. (Clean spot under the mount is a "footprint" place it there.)

Check the fuel injection resistor if it does not work check the air hoses to the sensors one may be choked

yes you can if yo u have the proper tools , just get a manual from reiley or advanced and read it all first then replace them

Could be a plugged filter, but generally there would be symptoms as the filter slowly restricts flow. Inside your transmission there are a series of shaft seals. If one upstream of the clutch drums fails, pressure will be lost and you will not get any clutch application. This can also happen if a control valve in the valve body goes bad, or the pump fails. Boiled down, something inside the unit isn't allowing pressure to go where it needs to go. All good trans shops will run a series of tests to determine if the problem is control or pressure related. Aside from the valve body, all else requires the transmission be removed and rebuilt. As the unit warms up the clearance between a worn seal and the shaft will increase . that's why it happens after warmup. This is not isolated to your trans but is common to all transmissions.

Test both the manifold air temp sensor and the coolant sensor. If either are out of range it can alter the cold start idle.

What your are describing for symptons actually sounds like a sensor and a valve the starting problem is aa sensor Throttle position sensor and the stalling problem is your idle air control valve hope this info helps just make sure after you replace these 2 items that you disconnect the battery for about 10 minutes so the computer resets itself.

Here you can find a complete guide about the Serpentine Belt for XJ 1995 Jeep Cherokee.

I hope help you with this (remember rated this help). Good luck.
