Hey Jeep Peeps
OK so no issues with overheating AT ALL except few years ago when I first got it I ended up having to get new radiator and water pump. So last week I'm on my way to clean a house in which the driveway is steep concrete first turning into dirt bumpy rocky ride but perfectly fun and good reason to engage my 4HI it's about a min of run never had a problem before been up it 50x. I also turn off the AC for obvious reasons but this time I get to the top it's boiling over and steaming...but was fine right before the driveway...I thought maybe the AC fan was actually keeping it cool maybe my fan wasn't working otherwise so I spent all week double checking hoses and hookups just to be sure had ZERO issues so yesterday on my way to that house I even take the long big hill on the way it's not as steep but it's much longer prob good 3-4 min I Rev it 4.3 rpm all the way with ac on ...NO ISSUES.. get to driveway this time leave AC on and get to the top and same freaking issue!! I know the basics .. thermostat...radiator cap..etc..the thing is the only variable that's constant is the one and only steep hill that seems to cause issue , it overheats fills my overflow tank, spews out the back breather outlet on the tank, all over my engine compartment...today had to drive outta town pretty long big hill up freeway back...NO ISSUES! so what about this one short but pretty steep hill is causing this??
