Hello. I am a newbie to this group. Very pleased I can join. My baby has carburetor leak.
Potential mechanic asking me engine size (litres). I have no clue.
Where do I look on engine?

It is a 1978, CJ5, V8 AMC/Renault.
Does anyone know the litre size of engine?
And where can I get replacement part.
Thank you so much in advance.

(I did a brief look at past posts but do not see anything that matches. Apologies for new thread if this info is already out there.)

The engine displacement should be cast into the block. Facing the front of the Jeep, the number should be under the right side motor mount. It will likely be 304/5.0 Litre. It may also be 360/5.9 Litre. The 304/5.0 Litre would be the stock motor, the 360/5.9 Litre would be a swap. Also if the factory valve covers are installed, there should be a number tag screwed to one that can also be used to identify the motor size.


You should be able to easily get a rebuild kit to fix your leak.

I'm sure it is a 304 with a t150 3spd manual and a dana 20 transfercase. If you can stomp on it and do wheelies you might have a 360 or 401 swapped in:smile2:
