Just wanted to pass along that everything is A#1 OK and I'm having no problems with the KJ at all... with that being said are there any bets as to what will fail first... |

How many miles ya got? I'm willing to bet you engine oil will go first due to thermal breakdown. I predict it will need to be replaced in less than 3,000 miles. |

Yeah, especially if you are running that crappy dino stuff and not a full synthetic. |

My gas gauge was the 1st thing to fail. It was reading empty after the first 200 and some miles. I thought it would last longer. |

If you don't listened to JJsKJ. Then listen to this old man I have been an AMSOIL dealer since 1976 not to sell synthetic oil just so I had it available for all my rides. 1970 Buick GS 1973 Chevy Vega "hot rodded engine" 1970 Pontiac Ventura 1974 1/2 260Z 2+2 1973 Chevy Nova 1980 Toyota Celica 1986 Toyota Pickup 4x4 1995 Dodge Dakota 5.2L 4x4 2002 Jeep Liberty Sport As I said I didn't become an AMSOIL dealer to make money, I did so all my rides were taken care of. I try not to put down Mobile 1 or Royal Purple, but research Amsoil it was around long before these other companys knew what lube ment. LEAD |

I don't see the big hubub about synthetic. I run 10w30 in the summer (regular ol' valvoline) and 5w30 in the winter (ditto) They didn't switch to 5w20 until '05 or 06, but what I find odd about that is the 05+ Grand Cherokee and Commander 3.7s take 5w30...what gives? |
