I never got much response from the other jeep forum and then found this place.
I bought a Jeep blind over the phone with to option to have my deposit back if I wasn't happy.
After a long train ride I bought it. It was a good deal with 80k miles and service history. It's a 2005 Sport 2.8CRD, private owner old guy was genuine.
Usual mirror faults but everything else works. The heater isn't very good so yesterday I fitted new thermostat, it now runs midway and heater is great. Fan doesn't work on speed one so I've ordered a resistor.
Now to my question, I drove home 200 miles without faults but yesterday whilst on a test drive the car lost power and wouldn't rev above 3k. No eml came on. A restart of the car fixed it and it fast again. There was no smoke.
