_Having been raised just outside of Kenosha, Wisconsin (insert American Motors Corporation), my Dad wanted to support the local auto industry. (Hence the name, Kenosha canoes). Anyway we had a brand new '71 AMC Ambassador Brougham (and yes my Father opted for the big 401 versus the 360 engine). The car was white with a black vinyl top and burgundy interior. It was the car I took my driver's license examination in. Fun car for a 16 year old kid to drive for sure._

30 year Chrysler,Jeep tech here. If they kept adding oil. You may want to check the pan on the bottom of the intake. There is a paper gasket that leaks and sucks in oil under load. And yes that front crank seal is stepped. The part that sticks out is smaller in diameter than the front cover. Make sure you replace the fuel filter too. These have an external filter back by the tank.

Great videos on this 5.9. Great engine. I had a 1978 RV built on MaxiVan w. big picture widows; it seated 9 in 3 rows -- 2f, 3middle, 4back. Carburated 360, 727tranny ran perfect. I bought used for 1200 w 275,000mi. Added over 200,000 more. For 2 years I drove 250mi a day just to work and back. Clean custom Interior w. captains chairs, carpeting, all tinted glass, etc.. Never any problems. Went to Smokey Mtns (that 360 never even noticed the grades)) and never overheated -- engine or brakes in the mountains; and to S. Florida, drove it all over. 12mpg. Eventually I saw a 2001 B3500 18passenger Maxibus cheap. Decided to move up in year and do a DIY RV. HUGE mistake 5.2 engine (9mpg) lacked power, overheated badly, front end fell apart ( only 75k miles) Electric wiring and switches burnt up (safety recall, but dealer so far away, I fixed it myself -- they wouldn't tell me how long they would take and would not furnish a loner). I would never buy another Chrysler product made after MB takeover. Everything was so cheapened and wiring was atrocious. Dodge dependability gone. Very sad to have ever sold my 1978. Those Grand Cherokees. up to including the year you have were superb super dependable vehicles. Your diagnostic approach makes a lot of sense. You don't waste money and you focus on tracking problems to use your time to advantage. You will never wear out that 5.9. If it has a 727tranny, they work smooth forever. I really enjoy your videos.

Back in the early 2000's I was running a white Kawasaki Tecate 4 learning everything I could about engines and working 3 jobs. AmsOil Dominator was the only one that kept that Tony Kelner ported, LA Sleeved animal with a 39 mm Sudco PWK from being rebuilt way beyond my budget. I taught some people how to ride it and that always ended with injury or a good story. Gotta thank Corey Sprock for recommending it when I was picking up extra shifts just to go faster than the 'Zillas and Banshees up the hills but still be able to ride it there and home. AmsOil helped the two stroke community with a brown plug reading @ 36:1 on pump gas when no other oil companies could. Forever respect.

Very food tires for something that sees dirt occasionally, but does spend a lot of miles on pavement. I think you'll like them... but next time buy from tirerack or discount tire. Then you can pick them up locally yourself and not be at the whim of delivery scheduling. And this comes from a truck driver. ;)

Love the rubber tube idea!! One trick to keep things clean. Take an old tupperware clear container with a stiff lid, cut a hole just big enough for the threaded section to fit in. Catches all the fuel and lovely crap that works out of the injector too. If you were to use a glass jar(no metal lid though...), you could really see the stream well. I set up a momentary-toggle switch on a board with the 9v battery wired in along with a pair of clips for the injector connections. You can trip the switch as fast as you want or just hold it for a long spray. Pretty nice system, dirt cheap. Running fuel through the injectors in reverse also clears out the filter cups in the top if needed.

I was 17, paid a buddy of mine $150 to take me a few hours away (Hell of a friend- no way I'd do that for $150 these days.. lol), and we picked it up with his dad's trailer. I had to install a CPS, fuel pump, and spent about 3 days racking my brain trying to figure it out since I knew NOTHING about vehicle EFI at the time. If I remember right, I paid $800 for it, with around 160k miles. 4x4 Man everything I heard in this video was accurate, and I do have to give you credit for that. A lot of the newer (DIY Tutorial style) youtube mechanics tend to spew a lot of garbage that is not only useless, but sometimes harmful to the end user trying to learn. That being said, I was to give a small amount of input. Amazon offers carb-ready inline pumps for

Our first car was a 68 Valiant 4 dr. My mothers’ brother was in the Royal Canadian Navy at the time and some how we ended up with 2 gallons of battleship paint. I remember my father and I painting the car with a brush and roller with that paint.The job didn’t turn out to bad considering the method. It was my mother’s car since my father didn’t drive. Hence forth my mother was known as Battleship Betty. She took it all in stride. Nice memories for me. Thanks for the trigger on that.

you can also backflush the injector with the same method, just a bigger hose, if you suspect large bits of dirt have got caught in the screen

For those watching that don't know, the injector doesn't create the pressure that enters the cylinder but rather just release the pressure made by the fuel pump into the cylinder. That's why this DIY hack works. The spray bottle (fuel pump) is pressurizing the hose (fuel rail) and the injector is releasing the pressure.

As my shop partner would say "Dilution is the solution" (Gas bruh). What I like is the fact that thing holds the winter roads like a cats paw. Many beaters in the family but I remember the 118 mph Wood panel Oldsmobile Cutlass Wagon I just don't remember the year (yea did that on I95 on a dare). That and my pa's 66 Falcon I6 that was driven to the junkyard after being driven to the ends of the earth and back.

This has been great to watch! I bought a 5.2 at the beginning of quarantine that had been sitting in a field for 3 years and it turned out not as great as this one hahaha. Cool to see one turning out good for someone!

I had really bad experience with 2001 5.2. But then quality went rock bottom after about 2000 when MB took over. The 5.2 in a heavy vehicle always uses more gas than a 5.9. A lot depends on the year. They have made several completely different 318ci/5.2l engines. The 318 they made in the 60s had gobs of torque and still gave great fuel mileage. I believe it had IIRC wedge heads. The one prior to that had polyspherical heads and was so tough that it was used in tractors too. It was a bigger heavier engine. Chrysler was the ONLY American manufacturer to ever do balance check w engine and transmission assembled as a unit before it was installed in body. If I were going to pick one vehicle to cross a desert in, it would be a 66-67 Plymouth w 318, no computers, points and condenser single coil ignition (no coil over plug ignition, full size automatic tranny- no light duty tranny from a 4cyl car. Or another similar Chrysler product from those years.

I've had like 4 of the 4 liters when I was younger. I bought an '87 with 320k miles (5spd) for $200 when I was 16 and drove it to 510k without doing anything other than a clutch , water pump and tires /brakes. Love them last one I had was an grand Cherokee I sold 10 years ago and I still see the girl driving it around. Bullet proof trucks bit not so fuel efficient lol.

Replacement crank seal. The Magnum's really like the normal "Performance" upgrades, but the biggest blockage/hold-up is the "Beer-Barrel" intake. It is designed just for torque and falls on it's ass after 4K RPM; an intake, better cam and tune make them really get moving
