- 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee with a blown engine that we repoed at the dealership, decided to crank it up after a couple days of inactivity. That engine is gone, and was really smoking up by the end of the video. 160,000 miles, inline 6 cylinder.

A beautiful symphony of sound.
its one of those rare 3 cylinder jeeps! lol
My 97 Grand just cracked 192,000 miles on the odo. Still runs like a tank. That 4.0 is one of the best engines that came from Chrysler.
In the 80s/90s I did that with Chryslers 2.2/2.5. Once you change a few head gaskets on the same engines, you learn a lot of time saving short cuts.
Most people cannot even change the oil.
those old AMC straight 6 engines were among the best, with a reputation to back it up...i have one with 156 K; it's a real workhorse and runs like a champ. this one lived a rough life. so did the rest of the jeep.
Poor neglected WJ. But go figure, in typical "can't kill it" Jeep fashion, the 4.0L still starts up and attempts to idle. lol
Actually, it's a Laredo but I agree.
@@thechannelofrandomvideos789 WJ is the chassis designation for Grand Cherokees model years 1999-2004, regardless of trim level.
@@AKJeeper oh ok
I like it and I want it are u selling ?
@@simonewright1307 lmao
Broken Piston Skirt(s)
Typical 4.0 engine failure.
Amazing it didn't lock up while filming, it's very close from the sound of the Piston Slap.
I have a 99 model with 143,000 and have had no problems other than the general stuff. Only had to replace the water pump (it broke on my way from Colorado to Alabama while towing a full uhaul pull behind. I love my Jeep, especially the green color like i got.
i have a 1976 mail jeep with an inline 6 no telling how many miles it has! great engines
thats the i6 for you, never wants to die
I have one just like this one. There is a piston in the oil pan and the racket is the wrist pin hitting the cylinder wall. I think this 4.0 is good for cracking pistons and eventually they come appart.
Nice sounding engine!!
What NO NOT AT ALL???????!?!?
But is nocking like demon
@MrUnderpaid I agree, my dad had one, and boy did I like it! they look good lifted too. Can't go wrong with one
No Worries, that will buff out!
this truly makes me sad! i have a 04' wj w/ the 4.0 and i treasure this vehicle..! Its terrible to see a motor capable of 300K + destroyed.. Its obvious that the owner didn't care about too much by the looks of the interior.. Anyway, REBUILD IT, LET THE 4.0 LIVE!!
I have a Jeep like this and its running strong with over 185,000 miles on it
@my2006SS Cool, that's a good idea. Keep the Jeeps going! You're right about the head gasket though, that seems to be a part of an engine that nobody knows how to change except for those who love working on cars or mechanics. Also, I hate how some people think that if an engine needs a part replaced, it's unacceptable since they should make every part of the engine last forever. Like if a gasket, belt, or a sensor goes bad, the car is "junk." HELLO?! This happens with any engine out there!
I just went here from the update vid,and man not much has changed
I've been looking for this noise all night. Looking for everything torque converter or trans related. Sadly it's time to except I've murdered the 5.3 😭
Yes, my family had 3 Grand Cherokee's (92, 96, 00) all with the 4.0L and none of them gave us a big problem. The 96 did have a rear axle leak but we took care of that easily. Plus all lasted with over 100K miles on them. The 92-04 are probably the most reliable Jeeps out there. You probably did get a lemon. Sorry, hope that didn't turn you off to Jeeps
Nor is the back engine ground conected what was this video posted for ?
My dad had a grand Cherokee. It was a good car. Wait he had 2 a larado and a v8 I loved them both
that engine is toast O_o
Im guessing its running in like 4 out of the 6 cylinders... Probably blown piston rings, maybe a few rods thrown here and there, the head gasket is probably no more, maybe dropped a few valves, etc.
Yep.
TheAssassin650 so if your Jeep is making this exact knock sound it's most definitely the motor correct? I'm having the same issue with mine only it was kinda sudden and it will cut off after about 10 mins of driving and will need to sit before it'll crank again
Inceptionz The sound of the jeep in particular in this video if you hear that regardless of knowing specifically what it is you can certainly rule out the fact that it is fucked
Everything's screwed up, when an engine blows, the valves, drivetrain, valvetrain, pistons, cylinder walls, piston pin, connecting rods lose their ability to "hold together" so when the engine moves, the loose parts rattle. This is basically the death rattle of an engine, also when the engine gets blown, the pistons, cylinders, valvetrain all lose their normal shape, thus making that engine death rattle (Also there's no oil in it so that's the cause of it sounding so loud because there's no oil.)
This is something in the top end for sure... A rocker arm and valve are flapping around in there somewhere haha
COOL Jeep Grand Cherokee w/ Blown Engine Start Up, Exhaust, and Tour
Thank you to the people that posted on this video, I have a 2000 Grand Cherokee just like this, it had a loud knocking, then all of a sudden lost power and started making that noise, now I know it is a thrown rod. Is this somewhat easily fixable if it didn't destroy the crank or the cylinder wall?
what are you putting on the rims that they always look like new when you have cleaned them?
Hell on my GC I was told when it hits 200,000 there just getting started
@ x2xhellx3x. I'm not a mechanic so I'm not for sure but. The defination varies by person. I{think most ppl} consider a "blown motor" one that has blown a rod and/or piston. It may still run like this one but on less cylinders. A seized motor on the other hand, is a motor that is locked and dosn't run at all. usually from being run with no oil or having clunky oil in it.
Hope this helps!
does this jeep have the automatic lights? or do u turn them on by hand with the switch? :-)
at least it still runs
Is this Jeep the one that featured on a cash for clunkers destruction video? It is the same model year and has the same color and rims. That one threw two rods and was still going, really tough
4.0 engines lives
The '97-'00 4.0L's were known for having weak crank bearings... They got it right again around '01.
lmao, I told you! In the related videos list, theres all the these supercharged Cherokee videos
Old school SaabKyle video
Sounds like a Tractor.
All jeeps do lol
just enough compression to come alive lol
@drippinblood28 True, seems like the engine is the only good thing that lasts on these vehicles. I have read people have got over 300k on Jeep Cherokees but never a GC. I think with all the issues the cooling system(running hot,overheating and other stuff) GC have, its nearly impossible to to get 300K out of the motor.
Did you even check the oil?
2 year old video but..
Late 99-01 had bad heads. Could of cracked, sent coolant into the oil, and killed the bearings.
There was a couple years of WJs that had problems cracking piston skirts too, I think 00 was one of them.
That's a pretty loud engine
@saabkyle04 do you how much a transmission for a 2001 jeep grand cherokee laredo 4.0 inline 6 costs and how did they do that i have over 250,000 miles on mine and my engine sounds like new
Is Car Connections permanately closed now and why???
2:07 I like that startup
Broken piston skirt. Very common on the 99+ 4.0 for some reason.
Im thinking of buying a 2002 wrangler 4.0, 5 speed 50k miles....what are some common problems. I had a 99 cherokee 4.0 and the auto trans. went out at 100k so is the 5 speed a better choice,
@tripovermyego It's cool...but you are right, not good to clamp that port...could push out a main seal, lose all the oil and fry the engine REAL quick...
@tripovermyego Oil does create vapor, but think about what you're saying...if oil created THAT much vapor, you'd be topping it off constantly. The gas is called blowby. It is gas that slips by the rings and enters the crankcase. The main thing that happens when it builds too much...it blows gaskets finding places to escape. I'm a master certified tech, guy....trust me. Oil pressure is read off the main oil galley after the pump, where crankcase pressure wouldn't affect it.
@alientech2010 yeah, They look nice,ride nice but have alot of issues, I thought these were good motors, but after doing some research found blown engines on Jeeps ,esp Grand Cherokees, before 200,000 miles is quite common. These vehicles have alot of issues.
wow, 160,000 for a 2000, lots of miles, my uncle has a 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee, his had a blown motor, but he got it replaced, and last time I checked it had 128,XXX miles on the odometer. :-), this jeep has a lot of miles
My jeep sounds exactly like this jeep turning over on a cold start XD (negative degree weather)
Really??
She needs some lovin bruh
on the one hand its awesome watching you try to force it to run despite a blown engine, but on the other, its heart wrenching to see it suffer more knowing some fucker beat the piss out of it. It would make a great 4x4 if it had been driven right. :(
Most any manufacture that made a inline six they were bomb proof. I had a 1978 F-100 with a 300 inline six. It was my first vehicle so it got dogged. Bought it for $500 and had it nearly two years then sold it.
The 4.0L in these jeeps were good. I say that and I hate most anything Mopar. I know that they had trouble with what is called piston slap but that doesn't sound like it in this case.
Clean it up and put another motor in it.... or is it to be salvaged?
@640101vh yeah i guess you're right about that. They don't tolerate high rpms either, but will really last you even 400k or 500k if they never overheat and stuff like that.
Sounds like a valvetrain problem, like a bent pushrod (these are pushrod engines).
@commanderphoenix1 Maybe thats because the 4.0l was originally from AMC.
I don't know how a guy kills one of those 4.0's? i have an '89 with 238,500 on it and still drive it EVERY day. I also use it to pull trailers, hay wagons, other cars, tree's ect. It also starts right up when i had to go to work when it was -35. they were bullet proof for sure!
Ugh, looks like they were living in it. It's no surprise that the engine knocks. 4.0s usually take a lot of abuse. 4.7s are a great engine as well, but require spot-on maintenance. What a shame. It could be a nice vehicle again though.
@OldFordsRun Haha! I was thinking about my mother when you say not taking care of their cars ! and I totally agree with you
well i read online some wheres the type of inline six that mine was apparently once 10000 miles get put on it something about it makes the engine take a dump
is there any oil leaks?
Seven year old video. Somebody is probably still driving that inline six around, saying, "Ya, gonna' need a valve job soon".
Hocus Focus Productions actually. It was fixed somewhere in 2012 or 2013. Haven’t seen a video ever since.
and it still runs...
I would think it weird that you'd do a walkaround of a blown car, but I saw you do a walkaround of a semi-trailer...
i had to have mine replaced and it had oil and coolant and yet still blew
Do you know why the crank on blown engines sounds that way?
what happends to the engine?
yea right best engine on what rebuilding them
Im looking to buy a Grand Cherokee 4.0. I have heard that the 99-01 years are real problimatic. Have you seen alot of Grand Cherokee's those years with alot of problems?
@0rganDon0r thanks:) I do enjoy fixing things. I tend to baby everything I own but yes this is discusting how anyone can trash things:( living in an apt complex I see and fix more busted cars around here just from lack of maintenence. VERY SAD:(
@MrKaninja You could usually say that about a Jeep 4.0 engine. But this oen is fucked. Badd crank. I mean look that the oil pressure gauge, it has no pressure!
now do you do the repo or do other people at your work do the repo
do you guys still have this car
This thing is still running with the same inline 6 to this day
Sounds like new
What is actually wrong with that engine?
Oil not kept to proper level?
Not changed enough?
@640101vh dude the engine is great. They really do last above 300k a lot if they are treated well. The rest of the car is questionable. For example, I've had to replace every single part of the coolant system in my jeep (water pump, radiator, hoses, thermostat, radiator cap, tons off shitt)
How much would that car be worth with the blown engine?
god dang look at the oil pressure 4:00
@LordKevin92 Yeah it was probably a really good car back in its days
damn that is sad it looks really nice still not beat up or torn up inside or out
just full of crap and in need of a major cleaning
until you hear the engine
with 160K miles on the 6cyl engine I am guessing that either
A,, someone never checked the oil
or B they Hot rodded the crap out of it
most likely they forgot to ever check the oil cause knowing what I do about inline 6 engines, I know they will take some serious torture
4.0L 6 is almost as tough as a Ford 300-6
wow, its very beat up
how did you end up with this?
It's a jeep.....jump in it drive to the store, buy some beer. Then go to the parts store, spend $400 on parts, drive it home and spend a Saturday fixing it. Right now my '96 4.0 sits with 288,000 on it. So far just 2 water pumps and 1 radiator. Runs as strong as the day I bought it with 11 miles on it. They are a pretty bullet proof engines.
Timing chain guide has broken or slipped,the chain is slapping at idle. It sounds like the timing is off one tooth,if you put a new chain on it and reset timing you should be good. You keep running it like that your going to bend the valves and need a new head.
I bet some people down the street thought it was a big cam hemi v8 lol
Looked like it over heated!
This makes me sooo sadddd!!! How could you do thiss??!! Ugh and that engine is soo strong and reliable mine has 155000 miles and runs great! And its super clean
This goes to show that people don't give a damn about their cars. The Grand Cherokee actually has one of the most reliable engines.
fuck yea your a fan of davids farm!!
me too one day i want to go there
it was i mean my ex n i was in her home town and i went to put it in 4wd when it started knocking but as it had done such before i disregarded that as it just being really cold
All the vapor out of the exhaust and the weird sounding startup points to a badly blown head gasket.
They probably kept driving it and all the antifreeze mixing into the oil ruined the bearings.
what are you gunna do with it
This engine isn't blown, it's just got a broken piston.
GM would call that normal piston slap and send you on your way.
we have 2003 Nissan its sound like the blown engine
@saabkyle04 nice body SHOT engine. did you guys junk the jeep or fix it? Even me being girl I take much better care of my cars LOL. I do my own maintenence:)
did you check out the valve cover no bolts!! prolly spit a rod or lifter collapsed
I have a 2004 nissan hardbody like this one what shall I do
+Ramith Wickremasinghe sell it around spring
