On the last one I blew the motor on the highway, dumped all the oil out over the road, idled to the next exit, pulled over and stopped at a hotel, and the next day when the tow truck came, I was still able to crank and drive it with the hole size of my fist in the engine block and missing an entire cylinder.
My only minor dislike of them is wishing they had a bit more horsepower. If they ran a steady 200hp instead of 120ish they would be golden goated
That inline 6 is one of my favorite engines ever.
Its my second 86 CJ7 with the inline six.
