- My check engine light has been lit up on my dashboard for four years. Finally, the timing was right for a new replacement engine. This is my personal story of the check engine saga and the journey to a new engine for my Jeep.

Impressed with the techs and that shop. They know their stuff. Glad you are back on the road.
The techs at TNT are top notch and know their stuff. I trust them!
Congradulations, thank you for sharing. Just never know the reason sometimes. Everyone stay safe, happy and healthy.
Wow, what a project! I'm glad you found a great mechanic to complete the engine swap.
Wyoming, eh? Right next to the Gem State!
Wyoming!!! I needed to be back near the Rockies again.
Greetings from MV, CO. Sorry it was such a bad situation.
MV is that where I think it is? That's where I used to live for a bit.
Exhaust Valve leaking my guess. Good luck.
So glad you have knowledgeable mechanics to fix up your Jeep the proper way!! :) Is that the Iceman trail you are on?? When you coming back to AZ so we can go wheeling again? :)
@@apearl9999 yes its Iceman! I’d love to come soon!
@@JeepMomma I did Iceman last September before we came and visited you! It was awesome. :)
@@apearl9999 I am amazed you recognized it
Was it cheaper to replace with a used engine than rebuild your original engine ?
Do you mind telling us the quoted price to rebuild and jasper engine and used engine?
I fear i have the same problem except on cylinder 5
@@wadedog4280 We (where i work) wuoted other Jasper replacements and its about 8 to 12k. You can try to rebuild your engine but there is no guarantee it’s rebuildable and you pay labor to tear it out and then you find out its shot. You still have to pay labor. Mine at a normal rate to rebuild the engine we found, would have been about 9k. I got a discount. I am ball parking the amounts
@@JeepMomma thank you, I love my 2014 rubi and it's in the back of my mind to buy a different vehicle.
@@wadedog4280everyone i know who sold their Jeep misses it and a lot regret it
@@JeepMomma I agree and I would probably be one also.
It's just worrisome to think of ball joint replacement, oil cooler replacement, bad Mopar rockers ! Cams wearing out.
Did they install new rockers and cams on your new engine ?
@@wadedog4280 No those were good. It can be worrisome for sure!
Electronic nonsense.
I drive a Willys MB. Air conditioning is dropping the windshield. 'Check engine light' is the bulb over one's head that says _"this doesn't sound / smell right."_ Comp tests are done in the driveway (easy, peasy).
If replacement is a "new engine", why is it being assembled at the shop?
It's a new to me engine.
@@JeepMomma Indeed.
Replacement.
Time to drive the MB to get some grub.
It's down to 99 degrees (F) right now, so I'll drive her with inner W/S frame tilted outward as top is on (it's more work to drop entire frame).
Don't buy a vehicle that you can't afford to maintain.
You don't expect to replace an engine when you buy a new vehicle. Plus, life circumstances over time change.
