When I bought it, I had to replace the entire exhaust from the manifold back.
The heater didn't work when I bought it, it was rigged to be on the whole time.
I only bought this car out of pure necessity, because the transmission in my Lumina died.
The Jeep also handled poorly in the winter, since the 4-Wheel drive didn't work.
It was constantly cold inside during the winter due to the gaping rust holes in the doors.
Well, I'm not surprised that the car has some problems seeing that it has over 210,000 on it. Sounds like it also wasn't very well cared for before you acquired it. I own an 85 jeep Cherokee and, although it isn't the most powerful car, it seems to be more dependable than many other cars on the market.
I am a west australian would a 1982 jeep cherokee with a local 4l ford falcon motor and 5 speed box and origonal 4wd be a wise choice. for farm work. the body is very good. it is licenced and selling for $1000?
