Jeep Rant

Doesn't even need to be that big. A scrap length of 5/16 or 3/8 fuel line works, too. Exhaust, vacuum leaks, engine noises of all sorts

A cheap stethoscope at the second-hand store with the end cut off works well too, or you could just buy the the $4 one at HF http://www.harborfreight.com/mechanics-stethoscope-41966.html

I've used the fuel line trick when in a bind, but I find I prefer using a mechanic's stethoscope to rule out background noise and get a better sound.


My brother ran his 94' JGC with the 5.2 in it for over 3 months without any oil before his wife took it in the divorce. Couldn't kill that engine, but the rest of truck was junk.
