Bought Sight Unseen: Building a Jeep 4.0L and Immediately Driving it Cross Country - Operation Taco
Intro Music: th-cam.com/video/w4W_7wgKviM/w-d-xo.html
Operation Taco takes us from the marshes of east Georgia, deep into Florida and across the Southern United States in our quest to get Taco driving his own XJ. We figure out how to build an engine, and then immediately drive it across the states.
Taco took part in our last adventure: th-cam.com/video/RRsq1e2tLZU/w-d-xo.html
Taco first appeared in Operation Ultimate: th-cam.com/video/NwA0tjckRUY/w-d-xo.html

Payback: th-cam.com/video/kdkhSKNbfPg/w-d-xo.html
We never did find out why the engine was torn apart, only that it was done so against the will of the previous owner: She brought it to a shop for a diagnosis on some noise it was making (likely just lifter tick) and without her consent, they tore open the engine, found nothing wrong, and told her it'd cost $2,000+ to reassemble everything. She denied the service (having never asked for it in the first place) and had the Jeep towed back to her yard, where it sat since 2018.
The Cylinder Head is from Edlebrock, none of that 0331 nonsense for this one.

On 50-State equipped 2000 and 2001 Jeep Cherokees, Heat Soak is a somewhat prevalent issue especially in warmer climates. If your engine runs rough on warm starts, you have a random cylinder 3 misfire code, or it fails to even stay running after recently being shut down, here are a handful of methods to fix the problem.

    I did not infact know how to remove the air box. 🤣 I bought a 98 Jeep 4L that had a rough idle. Never worked on a car before this. Had never even changed the oil in a vehicle. Tried all sorts of different solutions (New O2 sensors, ignition coil, spark plugs, etc) and nothing worked. Read through a manual for a 2000 jeep and it suggested a blown head gasket. Following your video, I learned everything on the way and pulled the head. Gasket was fine, head was cracked. We just so happened to have a junk 99 (or 00) jeep on the property that had been wrecked, repaired, and had an older 0630 head. After endless cleaning, valve lapping, and replacing valve seals, I got it slapped back together with my dad After 2 months, it roared back to life today! Needs coolant before the real test but then I'll be road testing it tomorrow. It sounded so nice. Thank you so much for this video! This was my main resource to make it happen
