1 hot jeep

[jimmy the jeep]

Hey guys I've got a 96 xj that gets that hot that it leaves me on the side of the road. Cutting a long holiday short and wondering why it is I swapped my 02 Magna for it, apart from that it could never get me to some of the places i've been with the jeep even though there has been times that I wanted to burn it. Since this problem started I have had a new Radiator, hoses and thermostat fitted. Flushed the engine and new coolant. Wired the electric fan to the ignition. Summer is coming and I'd really like to be able to enjoy the long holidays that are coming. I'm in Adelaide, so if you know anyone that can help let me know.

Cheers XJ Mitch, Will do.

Yeah the answer will be on AJOR, but it could be your water pump has corroded impellors, thus not circulating the coolant very well. Worth checking it out anyway.

Thanks again to both of you jeepers. I will have a job and a half pulling out the water pump but I will replace it regardless (Ilimination process).

Have a write up on my site on how to change it. Not very hard at all.
