Pulling Engine, what should I buy?
Hey all,
Im pulling my 150k Engine because my rear freeze plug is leaking due to Previous owners neglect and it's easier for me to pull engine then trans. It also makes it much easier to change out gaskets.
My Buy list
I was thinking of also replacing Oil Pump while I am there, though my engine sees pretty good warm idle pressure (20-25psi) verified on an external gauge.
I decided I am not going to be doing my head gasket as Compression of the engine is pretty good (as of 15k miles ago) and afaik it's all buttoned up pretty good, if I need to do the job it can be done in the jeep.
Cyl1:142
Cyl2:138
Cyl3:147
Cyl4:147
Cyl5:142
Cyl6:144
Anything else I should look into?
