SOURCE: runs rough, black smoke, computer bank 1 burning too lean

Sounds like bad injectors, bad O2 sensors, and or too much fuel psi. Check the fuel psi against what the service manual says. If the fuel psi is too high, your regulator is bad. If the fuel psi checks out ok, you likely have a bad O2 or bad fuel injector(s).

SOURCE: 1998 Jeep Wrangler Sport tail lights don't work.

if the bulbs are good, the only thing left is the headlight switch, or wires. black/yellow wires from the switch all the way back to bulbs. ck power to the bulbs first. if no power, then ck power at switch.

SOURCE: have a '89 jeep wrangler 4 cyl. manual.trans.

Your problem is fuel related. There is too much fuel entering the engine. If your vehicle has a carburetor, check the float level and needle valve for leaks.(also make sure the float actually floats...some develop leaks or foam type sometimes become saturated and sink) If injected, make sure that the throttle position sensor, map sensor and pressure regulator are working correctly and that the temperature sensor is also good.Last, check any vapor recovery system used...they sometimes can fill with fuel and allow raw fuel to re-enter the airstream and richen up the mixture. After finding the problem, replace the spark plugs as likely by now they are fouled.
As there are a number of items to look at, I can't give you an exact "fix" but if the vehicle was here, those aqre the items I'd look at first.
good luck

It is most likely your head gasket. Check for antifreeze in your oil and oil in your antifreeze. Or it could also be your intake gasket. Whatever you do. DO NOT put any kind of products like that into your motor. Those are strictly last resort options. Take the Jeep to a garage for an estimate and repairs. Only add those products if you are planning on changing the whole motor out for a new one!

Truck runs smooth going fast, but a bit bumpy going slow

The black soot would be unburned fuel the moisture would be condensation from engine not being at operating temperature.
Do you still get moisture out of pipe after it is warmed up or just while it is warming up? Seeing it's a 1988 you should be able to make some adjustments to air or fuel mixture to make it run smoother and lose the black soot. Hope this helps.

1991 jeep wrangler new motor cutting out and backfireing and acts like it doesnt want to run? what could be wrong ? Fuel is getting to the motor! when it backfires there is a small cloud of black coming...

if it's been running less than a half an hour, it's possible that the lifters haven't filled up to pressure yet; it has to idle a while to stabilize. if it's not that, then look at your ignition timing and your firing order.

I Have a 2000 Jeep wrangler V 6 4.0 liter. ITs running rich.

4.0 is an L 6 . Not having the luxury of being there and doing the necessary testing myself, you will need to do that. You will need to get either a chilton or haynes basic manual and a decent digital volt/ohmeter. things I'd immediately check are the map sensor, manifold temperature sensor and finally, remove and visually inspect the fuel injectors (can test good electrically but be fouled on ends, causing a poor spray pattern). These are suggestions only...I would not replace any of these without testing.
Any questions about specific items, just ask!!
Good luck
