Lucky guy. I installed a few Warn ODs over the years in the Jeep shop. I have never seen one fail. I believe they say that they are good up to 350 HP. We had a Jeep that had better than that and the OD held up fine. I rebuilt the transmission twice and the rear axle once. If you put them in correctly, they do not go bad. |

Koolkats start with checking the spark plugs, make sure they are good and the plug wires, then proceed to checking the coil, then the distributor cap, rotor, points and condenser. Those are the easiest to start with and the most likely trouble points if it has been running in the recent past. You will need to verify if it is a 6 volt or 12 volt electrical system before replacing electrical parts. If you are unsure take the part in to the parts store and have the counter guy verify what you need. 6 and 12 volt parts are easily obtainable, if it happens to be an old military version and needs 24 volt parts that will be a whole different story. Good luck |
