Well yesterday morning my wife got hit in the tail of her 97 Jeep Cherokee while stopped at a light. 100% the other guys fault, but anytime your in a wreck it's going to cost some money. No one was hurt which is the most important thing, but the Jeep wouldn't start after the crash. I think the impact triggered the fuel shut-off valve. Does anyone know how to reset the shut-off valve? I'm sure most Jeeps are the same, so if anyone has done this on another Jeep or any vehicle I would appreciate some help, thanks.

Well you could always try the free advice of flipping through a Chilton's manual at the auto parts store and see what they have to say. I know my 96 F150 had an inertia valve that shut off the fuel system in case of an accident. It was located behind the footwell trim on the passengers side. It is something that I had never thought of or encountered on a vehicle until I started working on that truck and discovered it in the manual.
