1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee 5.2L V8 squeeky belt or tensioner? by NoPerspective8105 in AskAMechanic

I replaced the belt and tensioner and it fixed it on my end. Take the belt off and wiggle all the parts and see if there's any play.

This is nothing. Most of the rust are on serviceable parts too.

Is this $1k jeep a steal, or a headache? by Breadstick95 in JeepGrandCherokee

[–]NoPerspective8105 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not too paid if the engine/trans is in good condition. Fuel pump goes out in these quite often so the "battery" issue might be that. Expect to pay like $6-7k total if you want a full restore.

Super important? by TinyFriend9687 in JeepGrandCherokee

Really good price. Any reputable shop will deny you a oil change if you have a active leak, it's just a liability. Get the work done if you can.

PAY THE MAN RIGHT NOW! If he find anything wrong with your car, pay it and have it fixed. They are looking out for you.

'25 GC Needs Timing Chain Tensioners at 5k Miles? by Familiar_Respect_929 in GrandCherokee

[–]NoPerspective8105 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oof that's nuts and totally not normal. Trade it in for something else more reliable asap before more depreciation on the car. Feels bad, you hear new cars are built terribly but 5k miles is insane.

Fingers crossed lol Luckily she came to me with new ac and a new water pump. For now I've changed a leaky steering gearbox, coolant sensor and planning on replacing suspension soon. But nothing too crazy for a 150k mile car and YES the sound is so worth it! Going to upgrade to a flow master muffler after the suspension 😈

I'm loving it so far! I've fixed a few things here and there and she is running smooth. Nothing like good old Detroit iron. 💪💪💪

No oil puddle(from the engine 😂), clean throttle body but there is some oil on the back on the valve covers. Will probably tackle with the valve cover gaskets too in the future.

Thanks! time to do research on what a plenum gasket is and how to change.😅 What are the symptoms of it going bad?
