Christina surprised me with this 1966 CJ5! It hasn't run in a long time, and it has a compelling story to go along with it. Come along as we try to get this Jeep going!

Congrats on getting the Jeep to run. I had sticky valves on two of my old FoMoCo projects. They had original non-rebuilt engines and had sat for decades without being run (or run much.) I'm pretty sure it was carbon that stuck the valves rather than rust, but the remedy was pretty much the same as yours. Some push rods were bent, but I bent them back into shape. I used Marvel Mystery Oil and Sea Foam to keep the valves/seats lubed and clean. I haven't had to mess with them since. Both vehicles still running great. Best Wishes.

Pro tip: I always used compressed air to blow out any dirt and debris in any spark plug recesses before removing the spark plug(s). You don't want any rust/dirt/crap falling into the cylinders when you pull the plugs out. Anyway, I'm just getting started watching the video, but that Jeep looks pretty solid, actually!

AMC bought the civilian automotive division of Kaiser in February of 1970. Kaiser had acquired Willys Overland's assets in 1953, forming Kaiser Jeep Corporation. During the late Kaiser years many orphan parts were used on the larger Jeep vehicles such as Wagoneer. Oldsmobile engines, GM transmissions... . AMC changed the CJ5 in February of 1970, giving it a longer nose to accept their own straight 6 engine. Kaiser had bought the 225 'Odd Fire' Buick V6 from GM in 1966 or 67 (Kaiser called it 'Dauntless'), AMC sold the V6 back to GM where it eventually became the 231, then 3800.

This brings back memories. I had a 1966 Tuxedo Park cj5, and a 1963 cj5. The 1963 was pretty rough. The 66 was rougher. I rebuilt the 1966 because it was closer to what I wanted. I took it down to the frame, and replaced all brake lines, wheel cylinders, brake shoes, axle seals. I believe the lug nuts are right and left hand thread from the factory, if I remember correctly. I put in new spring and frame bushings. All axle seals, fuel lines. The fuel tank was good. I think the idea of the tank under the driver was from the war period. The driver would try not to get shot natural instinct. I modified my jeep the way I wanted it. I put a small block chevy in it and T10 trans, with twin stick transfer case. I had 4:10 gears. I was a great set up with 31in tires back in 1970s. The brakes didn't work when they got wet off road, so you will learn to use your gears to slow down. I had an unusual windshield, it was a split windshield that opened at the bottom, kind of a poor man's a/c. I put a full cage in it too. Many modifications but thats what makes it yours and think of it as clean slate. A friend made me a mahogany dash board and routed it out for gauges and glove box, the glove box door was leather with snaps. I have been thinking of getting another jeep and building another one, but the older ones are pretty bad now, but those frames where strong and better than the new ones. It looks like your starting with good bones. Make it the way you want. It sure is nice to have a wife that understands you. Enjoy your new toy, but don't shortcut when it comes to safety.

My first car. I owned a 1967 CJ-5 with the Buick V-6. At best, I could do 45 to 50 mph in top (3rd) gear on US-1, between Vero and Melbourne, Florida. This was back in 1973. All good memories with the exception of one very windy and stormy night when a couple of old fellows came knocking and asking if I could go down on the beach (back when it was allowed) and pull their buggy out of the threatening encroaching high tide. I was out of my league and out of ideas. Ignorance prevailed (on my part) and they were safely extricated from their perilous situation. Best of all, I was greatly relieved my Jeep survived.

The (Buick) Kaiser / Dauntless 225 'Odd Fire' V6 was an excellent engine. Low top speed was due to gearing. These were made to crawl into and out of just about anything, not for speed. Addition of a Warn overdrive to the back of your transfer case would have got you 25% more 'oomph'.

I had a couple of Jeeps back in the day and they were six cylinder. Had a lot of fun with them and used them for off road adventures and also they were road worthy.

I had a 68 cj5 in the 70's. It was a lot of fun. I had to replace the floor boards and paint it but it looked like new when I was done. That was a good model. I'm thinking mine was 6 cyl. I can't remember for sure.

Well done, Christina, for finding the Jeep and making sure the engine wasn't stuck. Well done, Richard, for getting it running and troubleshooting that dead cylinder. Heartwarming story about the previous owner -- that convertible looked great. Looking forward to more Jeep videos as you progress with it. Reminds me of Jeeps I sometimes got to drive in the Air Force in the 60s....

Those were likely M38A1 (Willys MD), essentially this Jeep but with better springs, 24 volt waterproof electric system, and such.

Lots of torque is the thing with the 4 and v6. Used to hill climb at the old strip pits in Southern Illinois, the Chevy, Ford and Dodges had to wind it tight in low and sometimes not make the top. The guy showed up with his 4 cylinder jeep and motored up it like nothing and even hit second topping the hill.

Been there, done that. My first Jeep, a stock 1948 CJ2A, outclimbed anything else in Winslow, AZ in the late 1990s / early 2000s.

Every time I watch one of your videos I learn something new. I had never heard of a TDC whistle before but I am going to buy one for myself. I also didn't know you could touch the exhaust ports to see which one is coolest to check for a dead cylinder. Thanks so much for your very informative videos.
