Re: [AMC-list] Guatemalan Jeep - Specifics?

Hi Jesse,
I posted up some other details in emails ... it was spark-knocking on the uphill climbs in Tennessee.  Aparently the detonation was severe enough to collapse the electrodes on a couple spark plugs and bust the end on another.  All the plugs have been changed and it's running good again ... no piston damage that the could see (through the plug holes).  They are back on the road with it again today and heading south to Arkansas.

Subject: [AMC-list] Guatemalen Jeep- SPecifics?

Can you give some details as to the noise and what was going on when it happened?  (idling, on the Interstate, towing a trailer/ pop, bang, grind, crunch)

What mods have been done to the engine that might have contributed?   

How far did it make it before encountering issues?  

Was there a "buildup" to the eventual failure (small noise getting louder or more consistent, etc...)?  

I will be close, but probably won't have time for the additional 3 hr ride there.  

Hope we can help!  

Jesse
