Believe what you want, I could care less if you want to put Wesson Oil in your Jeep. I however did my time twice working at Jeep dealerships, first go around in the early 90s the only Jeeps that had engine problems were equipped with GM V6s. Second go around was in 2006-2007, low and behold all was well then one day a jeep came in and needed a camshaft, then another, and another, and another.
We replaced engines in some, camshaft/followers is others. Some aftermarket warranty firms provided us with used engines to install. When I left the dealership to take the helm of a Deere parts department, we had a line of 4.0s and a couple 2.5s along one wall of the shop, all taken out in about an 8 or 9 month period.
The only factor in the equation that changed was the introduction of SM oil.
BTW, are you by chance at Ft. Lewis?
