Hello From Canuckistan
Hey everybody, just want to say hello to you from Canada.
I found the forum while looking for help with my new(to me) Jeep.
I am currently having issues with it and would LOVE to post a question, but my account is restricted at the moment

Well i suppose I should introduce my toy.
I bought a 1986 Jeep Cherokee, with the 2.8L V6, which I hear is a garbage engine, but I will have to make do.
I bought it off of a real estate agent for 900$ CDN, and it is in GREAT shape. White with a red interior, and the body has a few tumors but nothing big, frame and drivetrain looks healthy, and I hope to get some help to fix my engine soon. Look forward to talking with yous guys.
Ill have a pic or two up of my jeep soon.

Welcome. I had one of those engines in my 86 and was happy with it. Got a consistent 22 mpg with it.

I thought for sure that they made a 3.8 litre V6 that they put in Comanches... Im wrong...
