i finally get a jeep and already having issues. My 1997 jeep wrangler Tj SE 2.5 was over heating and my husband an i started with the one fix that was the easiest and cheapest.. We replaced the thermostat ( i replaced it with his help, i want to learn on my own how to fix issues with the jeep ) We took it for a test drive around the block... it started over heating again. We got it back home and it sat for a few days.
i decided to just take it to the shop and i went to start it and it wouldn't start.
We finally got it started but it died on the way to the shop, we had it towed to the shop and he said the engine is locked up. i read that no oil can cause that but i had checked the oil when it wouldn't crank over before we started to the shop
I just dont want to be screwed over by someone, because it got hot would that cause an engine to lock up?
thanks , someday i will get to ride with the top off again and if we did need a new engine is it worth upgrading the 4.0 has no power at all
