I have 1999 Jeep Wrangler 4.0, 5 speed manual with 156 000 miles on it. Some good soul put sugar in a gas tank and the engine itself also. The gas tank has been replaced, as well as fuel pump, parts of ignition systems incl. spark plugs., rotor, distributor cap. The engine has been flushed several times and oil change has been performed several times as well. Engine will need a valve job so cylinder head will have to be removed. and lifters, as well as valves, will have to be replaced. The car can be driven but loss of compression is obvious and the engine has a very loud tick. My mechanic diagnosed it as a skip and valve stuck open on 1st. cylinder. Other than that, the transmission leaks a bit of oil, I usually have some transmission oil added every oil change. Battery was changed @ around 88.000 right when I bought it and front brakes were done maybe around 120.000 rotors and pads. Rear brakes were never touched, I think they might still be original. I have purchased the drums for it a while ago but never got around to change those. A/C needs to be recharged, I had the freon drained out The sporty muffler was installed recently and car has K &N high performance air intake. The interior looks reasonable, some tears on seats. There is a spot on a driver side that has got some rust, it is visible on one of the pictures, other that that some dents and scratches, some minor paint touch ups would be beneficial. I do have all the invoices for work that has ever been done on this car since I purchased it with around 80.000 miles on it.The engine was always very strong, never burned or leaked any oil and car drove quite nicely until this happened. Comes with soft doors also.
This would make a sense for someone who is a mechanic unless you want invest around $2000 for the valve job, I was quoted that amount. Feel free to contact me with any questions you might have. Open to trades.Also, you are welcome to stop by and inspect the car before you bid on it.

Jurassic Park made a big impact on these Jeep drivers

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

For a certain cohort of young folks, Jurassic Park is a touchstone film from their childhood. Not only did it play into practically every little boy's love of dinosaurs, the movie included some great action scenes and special effects that still hold up today. In its latest video, The Aficionauto takes a look the Jurassic Park Motor Pool, a California car club with over 40 fans who created replica vehicles from the iconic film.
The club is made up of an interesting cross-section of people. Many of them were Jeep Wrangler fans that already loved off-roading and Jurassic Park, and liked the idea of bringing them together. Like any close-knit club, it ends up being about community and people coming together to share their interests. It's quite a heartwarming video. Also, be sure to stay until the end because The Aficionauto teases a future Jurassic Park-themed vehicle. Scroll down to check out the motor pool.

Jeep's Wrangler Hellcat and six other sweet concepts for Moab

Thu, Mar 10 2016

Jeep. Wrangler. Hellcat. You read that correctly. And while it's just a concept for this year's Moab Easter Jeep Safari, it has us dreaming about blasting through the desert at 200 miles per hour. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles released a whole slew of Easter Jeep concepts at an event at the company's Auburn Hills, MI, headquarters today. The 50th annual Moab Safari will take place in just a couple of weeks – it's a sort of mecca for Jeep owners, and for the past few years, FCA brings its concepts out to the rocks and trails of Moab to prove that these are more than mere one-off, delicate showcars. Our own Brandon Turkus was live at FCA's reveal event, and he passed along a bunch of notes, in addition to the official stuff from Jeep. Here are some details about each concept, with full photo galleries and videos of each Jeep creation.

Researchers who busted VW cheating say FCA's diesels dirty, too

Tue, Jun 13 2017

The Wall Street Journal today reported on an upcoming report from West Virginia University's Center for Alternative Fuels Engines and Emissions, which is the same lab that investigated Volkswagen emissions cheating. The report, which will be released in a matter of weeks, alleges that 2014 and 2015 model year Jeep and Ram vehicles with diesel engines emit excess pollution. But it does not specify whether the company used defeat devices. Since the report discusses Jeep Grand Cherokees, and that engine is also available in the Ram 1500, it's safe to assume that one of the implicated engines is the EcoDiesel V6, a unit actually produced by VM Motori. It's unclear whether the report covers any of the Cummins engines used in heavier-duty Ram pickups. This report comes on the heels of a federal investigation into FCA's diesel vehicles. That investigation focused on the EcoDiesel engine used in 2014-2016 vehicles. The feds were seeking a fine of up to $4.6 billion. The EPA and the State of California also previously accused FCA of using a defeat device on the same vehicles back in January. FCA, for its part, alleges that the WVU study might have been commissioned by people interested in suing the company, and disputes the testing methodology, according to the WSJ. We've reached out to WVU to confirm which engines are implicated in its study and will update this post when we have more to share. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
