Well I took a look... that crate engine is just a long block, not fully complete ready to run engine. This guy will have to buy the farm with that kind of catastrophic damage. He's got no rebuildable cores ( extra charges ) and will need EVERYTHING to bring that back to life. Wiring harnesses...
1 - Exactly what it is I'm not sure.
2- I believe that's either or the turbo VGT vanes / exhaust brake valve actuating a cycle to keep carbon off the moving parts. Prevents sticking.
3- Diesel's have greater compression then the gas engine and require more cranking power to start them.
4- I...
The only thing I can add to this is my experience with my 16 year old Jeep Liberty CRD blasting by 140K. In a nutshell its been the BEST Diesel and vehicle I've ever owned! I've come across tons of comments on all sorts of websites with people bashing the current EcoDiesel saying " Oh its just...
That 200K post is wrong - they are calculating in the 2K upcharge for the auto transmission as well. All but 1 article I've read keeps getting this wrong.
If someone chooses an auto transmission on the gas V6 then an upcharge applies too.
When I was trying to build it on both the Jeep site and at the dealer if you select the Diesel it gives a warning that its taking off the hard top insulation, bed liner and cover. Something about the turns the assembly line are taking between gas and Diesel - so I'm told. I already waited over...
I wouldn't worry about it at all. A lot of people drive your new Jeep before you get it - I was at the dealer last week and some Gladiators came off the car carrier - they were filthy in and out. For sure had a number of people driving it before it ever made it to the dealer. It happens, part...
Today it FINALLY happened! My order is in play with Kate at Courtesy Jeep in Philly!

I'm still new here and this is the first I've hear of "The Jeep Wave" I have a 2005 Liberty CRD that I drive everyday and not once has anyone given me a wave. I guess it only applies to "real" Jeeps like CJs, Wrangles and Gladiators. I can tell you in New Jersey "The Finger" is extremely...
Nice to hear that - guessing you have recent experience since you have a Gladiator. They "butchered " my 2005 Liberty CRD back in the day. I still have it! What a hack job. I'm sure that crew is long gone now. It was named Warnock but everyone in town called it Warlock!
So far Kate has been great! Not as low as Gupton but for me "close enough" where I can do the whole deal in one easy day instead of a plane ticket, motel room and 925 mile drive back from Gupton.
I've had mind-blowing spectacular results with this stuff on everything. The easiest and slickest finish I've ever had! I'll never hand apply wax again. Game changer.
