Engine repair for the 1982 Jeep CJ
For engine work on your 1982 Jeep CJ, we arrange a trusted shop; CarmaCars does not do the work. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.
Your car, your notes
Bring the owner's manual or service records if you have them. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the CJ. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request.
How we help
The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
A car while yours is in the shop
Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Before the shop starts
Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. If a warning light was the reason, ask what the code was and what fixed it. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare.
Between shop visits
Do not ignore a warning light; an early check often costs less than a late repair. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them. Use the grade of fuel your owner's manual calls for.
