Drove to the local shopping center, turned off the engine, came out and tried to start it up. The only way that I could get it to run (with lots of rumbling and jumping) was to lightly hold my foot on the gas. Had it towed home.
Replaced the plugs, neighbor hooked up diagnostic system and showed what looked like errors with the O2 sensors. Decided to tow it to the shop.
Mechanic called me today and said that there was zero pressure on cylinder 2. The valve cover was bent. He did a wet/dry compression check. He is still trying to totally figure out what the cheapest option is.
The mechanic mentioned "rebuilt engine"..any idea of what that would cost? I have almost 150,000 miles on the jeep..should I fix it..should I just get a new vehicle? My 16 year old is about to drive..would it be worth it to get it fixed for him?
Not sure of what to do next.
Thanks for any insight.
