or you can shop around for a plug...
or if you can't find one to fit, find a fitting the right size (the one that came out of it is a good candidate) and fill it with JB weld...
but either method is illegal for on road use in a 1990
I tried calling 2 kragen auto parts stores, but they said that the piece did not show up in their inventory data base and suggested I talk to a dealership. I'm not too fond of going through the dealer until it's the last possible resort. So I'm going to cut the current broken pipe down then fill it with JB Weld like you said until I come across that part.
One of the employees at the second Kragen that I called suggested that I try calling this place in Long Beach, CA called Harvey's Complete Jeep. He didn't have the number so I haven't called them just yet. I still have to call the ecology in Santa fe springs to see if they have any 4 cyl. wranglers. I did call the one in Cerritos, CA, but they didn't have a list of the vehicles in their yard. Also, my mom said she knows of a shop that is dedicated to Jeeps. Basically, I have several avenues to explore.
However, I still have yet to call pep boys, autozone, and napa auto parts.
About the current Wranglers: they haven't made a JK 4 banger. They did offer a diesel 4 banger option for the liberty in 2007 to people outside of the US, because it's emissions weren't up to par.
