[QUOTE="tJKrider, post: 463046, member: 25640"] For that model year I would want to know what engine work has been done, if any (besides the spark plugs you mentioned). As [USER=18221]@BLACKJKU[/USER] said that model year has known issues with both valve seat recession and cam/rocker wear. The health of former can be checked with a leakdown check. The latter can be inspected unless there is already a loud tick present, then it's already confirmed. I just went through the purchase of a 16 JK and still had the dealer check both to ensure I wasn't inheriting a known issue. They also provided a 4k mi P/T warranty. I paid a bit more but it was worth it to me to have the leakdown completed and some form of warranty, even for a short period... [/QUOTE]
