Hi all, i am a newbie here so I am not sure how these threads work. Anyways, I found this reference in another posting,
"the plastic bottle/cap. fine for an overflow but as part of the pressure system they suck. once it over heats you will never get them to hold pressure again. not realizing this I left the old ones and it promptly over-heated again. so I got a new cap, but the previous overheats had screwed the threads on the bottle, so it over-heated again. so I replaced both, somewhat better than having the older ones but you still have to be careful, the cap must be snug but if you over tighten it at all it jumps a thread. if that happens time for a new cap/bottle.
after all the time, money and BS I dealt with on the cooling system, I would have saved a lot of time, headaches, and about $150 if I'd just removed it all and put in a conversion cooling system with a regular cap and over-flow bottle.
thats what I'd recommend to anyone dealing with the overheat. anything else is just a temp fix until you can afford to replace it or get tired of fighting it."
I have gone through three bottles just trying to fix my cooling problem.
This is the third time I have seen someone mention a conversion cooling system with a regular radiator cap for the 89 cherokees.
Where can I find the conversion kit?
Is it relatively easy to install.
Please help. I really miss my Jeep. Driving my wife's Honda sucks bad!!!
Thanks,
Robert
