    PO700 Code

    I read a rather long thread concerning replacing the selector switch I'm referring to . A couple of the posters stated that the switch communicated with the pcm when the lever is placed in the 4-low position .

    Anyone with a cracked engine block?

    Don't know anything about these engines but a good welder could probably weld it if it isn't interfering with other aspects of the engine functioning .

    PO700 Code

    I'm getting the PO700 code with the mil light on . I have read there are several sub codes related to this code . Yesterday I noticed that I don't have a 4x4 dash light that comes on when the transfer case lever is in any position . Will the switch / sensor for the dash light malfunctioning...

    engine knock can't locate

    A couple years ago I changed the oil in a vehicle I have & I noticed a noise like bearing rattle on first start up . I also noticed it was taking longer for the oil light to go out when first starting . I changed the filter again & no more problems . I'm convinced I got a bad filter . Since your...

    2006 Liberty Sport Overhaul

    I would take the radiator to a radiator shop & have it pressure tested . There is a small weep hole in the water pump right underneath the front center . If the pump is leaking that is more than likely where it was leaking from & there should be visible signs at the hole . Did you hold the...

    2006 Liberty Sport Overhaul

    There are specific tests for blown head gaskets but there's a good chance a blown head gasket will show up on a compression test & as said the coolant leaks doesn't keep you from doing a compression test .

    2006 Liberty Sport Overhaul

    A salvage yard engine with reasonably low mileage will cost 1,400 - 2,000 & most shops will charge about the same to do the swap so yes , you could very likely have around 4,000 in an engine replacement . Add the other needed repairs & what you paid for it & you're getting a lot of money in this...

    Actual weight of the 3.7 assembly?

    I was reading that engine swap thread & if memory serves I believe it was stated in that thread the 3.7 weighs something like 380 & the 4.7 weighs something like 420 . Don't quote me on that though . I think this was the thread - Jeep Liberty V8 Swap Megathread

    2006 Liberty Sport Overhaul

    Maybe not , but at 190,000 miles with known coolant leaks I wouldn't be at all surprised if you have serious engine issues . I also wouldn't be at all surprised if it was ran hot which causes serious issues . From the other issues you listed it doesn't seem as though the previous owner was doing...

    In my neck of the woods used vehicles are bought & sold as is unless a written warranty is provided by the previous owner . Buyer Beware !

    engine stutter/misfire at 2.5k RPM

    Does a noid light flash when hooked to the wires for that injector ? I'm not sure I trust your shops diagnosis when they say everything is ok . Obviously you still have the problem & probably the injector code . I bought a plug & play pcm off ebay & weird though it was , the same injector driver...

    Front driveshaft regiment issue after new cv joint

    Good people , that's who I got my parts from . If the old cap was still in good shape I probably would just have reused it . Don't blame you for wanting a new one though .
