1986 Jeep Grand Wagoneer Jeep review from North America
"The greatest car a teenage guy could have!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The floats in my carburetor broke, so when gas would come in they would float up to let it in and then stay up. This lowered my mileage a lot, but I replaced the faulty carburetor and it runs beautifully again.
The drivers seat leather has a tear in it.
General comments?
This Jeep is amazingly powerful and reliable even with its age (17 years). I am 17 and my friends and often like to go off-roading and my Jeep usually outdoes my friends 92 Chevy Blazer. My turning radius is also very impressive due to the shorter wheel base. Recently I pulled a 540 in a gravel parking lot. My 1986 Jeep Grand Wagoneer is a one of a kind treasure and is the best car in the world, it has power, comfort, durability and style. I love it.
