Engine from the top

I would first make a visual check to make sure nothing is broken and will hit any moving parts. You may have cylinders full of oil. After rolling my Jeep, I removed all the spark plugs and then cranked the engine. Oil shot 20 ft. Clean the plugs, and reinstall. Check your oil level before...

I live in Miami and don't even own a top! HA

I'm considering an HEI, but if this one is pretty good, I would save the money and keep it. Maybe just an MSD control Unit or something would help. Note, it will get wet quite a bit. Here is a link to some pics of mine that may help I.D. it. thanx http://www.flickr.com/photos/14737937@N04/

I love V8's! My Jeep has a 304 and it is so much more pleasing to the eye and ear than any straight six would be. My jeep is a factory V8, and I considered putting a Small block chevy into it myself. The Power, parts availability, and resale value will soar (assuming you do it right). It's not...

So many things can cause this. Do you have a Chilton or Haynes book for the vehicle? They often have walkthroughs for problems like this.

Beautiful! Tell me you have a V6 or V8 in it!!!

I did this by renting a cherry picker for $38.00 on my 1969 firebird. It's not tough at all. I bought the new ones ahead of time, and the whole job was done by myself in 2 hours. You only have to lift the engine a couple inches. Most tool rental shops have the cherry picker, but you need a...

Hello. I'm looking for a place to buy a used front driveshaft for my 77 cj5. Does anyone know of any salvage yards that I might be able to call and get one shipped to me? Don't really want to spend the money for a new one. Thanx dave

I'll bet the distributer has a name or number on it somewhere that you can trace, then anyone that carries it should be able to tell you what you need.

Hello. My 1977 CJ5 headlights only work on low beam. When I hit high beam, they go out. The dimmer switch has been replaced. I tested one of the headlights on another car and the high beam was good. I checked the 3 prongs and got the following: headlights off: all negative...
