 Vortec

Unless that 2.8l is a vortec keep the jeep. I have a chevy colorado with the vortec and it is bulletproof, but I had that old 2.8l in my first s-10 and it was junk

The 2.8 was not one of gm's better motors. Intake gasket issue's and heads were very easy to crack if engine is run hot.

First of all the 2.8l is not a 4 cylinder,its a small v-6 and yes they are junk.The 4.3 v-6 is a great motor though.Ive owned both.

are jeep parts actually ford parts? i think so. if so, that 4l motor is great. i have one in a 90 ford ranger that is strong. i've also got a 90 ranger with the 2.9 l. it sucks.

The 4.0 jeep motor is an inline 6 or some people say straight six and the Ford 4.0 is a v-6

Ford never did make an 4.0 inline six in the USA in the 80,s.They had the 3.9l which might have been 240ci and they made the 300 straight which was a 4.9l.
