CJ 7, the way to tell is the door. If you have a U shaped door that you can get in and out of easily, it's a 7. If you have to slide your butt over a part of the door opening it's a 5.
they normally came with a 258 6 cylinder. The base V8 was a 301. 304ci Sorry, my mistake. It was a 304.
for the 1978 cj5 ,the firing order is 1-5-3-6-2-4

almost all of the cj5`s had no tailgates and had permanant spare tire mounts. if you do have one either it was special ordered or someone did it later. that`s the difference with the 5 &7.the 7 was a little longer and had the tailgate with the swingaway spare tire mount. Actually the "FIXED BACK PANEL/RR SP WHL MOUNT" was a $12 option in 1978. I have the factory window sticker for a 1978 CJ-5 listing it. The 1978 Jeep sales brochure lists it under "Options and Accessories" as "fixed back panel and spare mount (CJ-5)".
A diagram of the fuel lines to a fuel tank on a 1978 CJ5 Jeep can be found in an automobile repair manual. Both Hayes and Chilton make this type of manual.
