Re: Used or Rebuilt
Personally, I think the pont is moot. The warranty, if there is one, is not
likely to extend to you.
I would not be looking at what happened yesterday, I would only be concerned
with what I have to do to get to tomorrow. I understand the implications to
you, but those implications exist whether or not the warranty covers you.
The warranty might make the pain slightly less, but I don't think you have
any warranty protections here.

Re: Used or Rebuilt
As always, any additional clues to the current state of this engine would be
helpful.
It's either
A) a 1980 year used engine that was put into an 83 CJ7 in 1997 (absolutely
no idea of previous engine condition).
or
B) a rebuilt short block with a 1980 casting #.
There is about 40k miles that have been put on the engine using 32" tires so
It's probably about 10% more since this work so that would give me an idea
of what the engine should be like. Just a little.
You're right, the point is moot regarding warranty and I'm not looking for
any. This information could be useful should I like to upgrade to a 4.0L
head for instance (40k on a rebuild with good compression numbers says yes).
Plus, when you know what you got you know what you should expect like "Geez,
I only have 40k miles on this rebuild, this shouldn't be doing this".....
etc.
Given the compression, as Mike said, it's leaning towards B.
Thanks,
Bill
