My Jeep Liberty has been grounded for sometime due to a blown engine. The annoying thing is that for a car this age the engine still costs about N350,000. I have been waiting to put it back in shape but not quite decided how to spend that money considering the fact that I had spent a bit trying to put the bad engine in order.

However I didn't go out to purchase a 2004 engine anyway but my mechanic stumbled on one engine from an accident-ed Jeep with a good price on it of N250,000 so it was a cheaper option for a good engine. I passed payments through him twice till it was N200,000 then I asked the engine to be delivered at his workshop closer to my office. When I set eyes first on the engine I knew immediately it was not the 2002 engine we were looking for.

Because this was a vehicle torn to pieces and sold in parts the option of returning the engine was not my consideration. Thanks to a Jeep Liberty guru I met along my lines of trouble with the old engine, so I called him in from Aba on the 9th of April and discussed the options for modifications which involves the change of the crankshaft reluctor ring and timing sensor in the 2002 to the new engine. This process requires a partial rebuild of the crankshaft end of the engine. When we had gone through the details and a few YouTube videos work had to begin.
It wall went well in detail and engine is running smooth now.
