    Low voltage to fuel pump relay

    When you said you had two diodes in your original post, I knew you had a carb. I actually missed the model number part of your post.

    Have you posted on the Cobalt forum? Cobaltchat.com BTW, those forward drive trailers are hard to come by and typically need to be made to order since they are so unique.

    KIA Telluride for towing?

    Yes 470 ft-lbs Your Jeep Grand Cherokee has a wheelbase of 109.5"....that is even less than the Kia Telluride that the Op was asking about. Sorry...but that is dangerously low unless you are towing a couple miles to a ramp like you apparently do. Bottom line, the Cherokee is a **** poor towing...

    KIA Telluride for towing?

    That's funny...I don't see you mention turbos anywhere! Too bad the Jeep is such a lousy tow vehicle with its short wheelbase and lousy payload. What is your payload on your Jeep..1000# or so? Also, you can't even get a V8 in a Jeep Cherokee anymore.

    Low voltage to fuel pump relay

    It will receive 12V to the relay coil while cranking(through diode from starting circuit) and then once the engine starts, it will get 12V from the alternator, also through a diode to that coil.

    Dust Cap Woes

    Basically using a center punch from the inside to dimple it so you have a small protrusion looking from the outside.

    Dust Cap Woes

    Pretty easy to dimple a cap from the inside with a punch. Put 3 or 4 dimples in and it will never come off. If it's a Bearing Buddy...A lttle harder to do but supposedly can be done. I had this problem once and when I switched to higher quality hubs, problem disappeared.

    If you have a roller trailer used in salt water....check this....

    Elsewhere in So Cal means ocean. We have over 7 foot tides at times. Today we have a -1.6 followed by a 6.8 later. As far as launching at high tide vs low tide, our ramps are the same angle no matter when you launch so it really doesn't matter if you launch at high or low other than the amount...
