Okay had a new radiator put in the X
My friend and I replaced the Lower ball joints and new boots on the axils, new brakes and rotated the disks (took use two days).

The new problem I’m having is the old triple naught X is stuttering, as if its not taking in gas
My friend thinks the fuel pump might need to be replaced.
Going to replace the fuel filter first.

What do you guys/gals think?

First get an old priest and a young priest ....  Lips sealed

Double check the area's you worked around and make sure you didn't pop a vacuume hose off - similar symptoms and arrise. Under full bright light carefull inspect looking for stray hoses or orphan hose connections.

Changing the fuel filter is always a good thing.

X2 on Vac. hose. Also, try the filter first before you condem the pump (I am a fan with going with the cheaper stuff first  Wink ).

Also check the rubber air inlet.  If that thing splits and sucks air beyond the MAF, you'll get a stumble.

My X is a 2000
We Already looked for vac. leaks and such.

My kids miss the bumpy roads.
Once this gets fixed I will be in the market for some new tires and then I'll see you guys/gals on the trails.

I’m on summer break now so being without a car isn’t that bad.

Ha ha ha!  Old priest and young priest huh?!  Haven'T heard that one in a while.  Make sure you change the fuel strainer that is attached to the fuel pump inside the gas tank once a year.  Otherwise you'll kill the fuel pump.

After replacing both ball joints, cv boots, brake lines, radiator, thermostat, other stuff I cant remember, and new tires I decided to give her a test drive. Drove to Big Bear last weekend and took out for a spin nothing fell off so I guess we did everything correct Grin
