Little bump in power

Had to get a new alternator so I decided to get a bump in power while I was at it. Went with a JS 320amp. Interesting point, its a tiiiiight fit with an aftermarket intake. Just a locking clip so idk if it rubs off. Next week is the big 3 upgrade.

2018 Jeep wrangler jk unlimited issue

Can anyone help me figure out why it turns over like that.

I've already had the PCM, camshaft and crankshaft sensors replaced and it still does it.

Looking to buy 2016 JK - what do you think? Carfax linked

Does this look like a JK riddled with issues? Carfax shows two emissions failures in TX and several reports with radiator related work.

Front aftermarket fender flare is loose and missing fasteners.

This Wrangler is new to me. One of the front fender flares is loose. I noticed it is missing a couple fasteners. I also noticed they are something like rivets or something. One of the rear fender flares appears to have screws though and not rivets.

For folks that have installed these, do the kits generally use rivets? And what the heck kind of rivets are those? I've only seen the basic metal ones that you can buy at the store. These are metal and plastic hybrid!!

Anyone know what size the screws are? I can take one out but I'm not sure if it will go back into the plastic and be as strong.

Thanks guys!

2018 JK unlimited wiper issue

Hi Al, just hoping someone can assist this is my first Jeep Wrangler and I have waited 30 years for the string but I know that there is a lot that I should be learning and there are tips and tricks especially to avoid spending thousands on unnecessary mechanical repairs. I noticed the other day I had pulled my wiper lover to clean the windshield and the fluid came out, but the wipers did not automatically come on. I had to manually turn them on and then when I turned them off, they would just turn off at whatever point they were at instead of going all the way back down has anybody had this happen? I hate to have to try to replace a whole motor if that’s not it or if there’s a trick to it somewhere appreciate it all thank you.

What are these two holes with a slot connecting them - where the engine meets the transmission?

I was just getting familiar with the undercarriage and I noticed a little oil seeping around this area. It doesn't stink like gear oil so I think it's just engine oil.

Anyway, what are those two holes with a slot connecting them? This is a 6 speed. Also, is the clutch sealed inside or is there an opening?
