Hi there. Hope all is well.

I just got a 1994 Jeep Cherokee Sport that was apparently given a new radiator due to overheating issues. It looks like that about two inches beyond the radiator cap there is an octagonal opening that juts out. That is where it's leaking coolant.

Is there a part that I'm missing by chance for that hole? Or is this some type of unique overflow that I have just never seen before? I think I'm missing a part, but just wanted to get an opinion from those who have more experience than me.

Thanks in advance, and all the best!

 

pictures please.

 

what ever came of this?? I replaced my radiator on my 1995 xj with one from advance auto and it leaked in the same area. so I replaced that with a factory mopar radiator just yesterday and it leaks in the exact same area!! right under the radiator cap, in the neck of the radiator there is a circular plug that seems like its just glued in place on both the aftermarket I had and the factory mopar radiator. what a s**t design

 

Still have your receipts for warranty? Take 'em back for replacement/refund.

 

I will be. Just looking to see if anyone has had better luck with certain brands

 

Our $100 AutoZone OE style (Spectra Premium) rad has been in for 3 1/2 years with zero issues. Perfect drop-in fit, lifetime warranty.

 

I replaced mine with a napa single line radiator. $130.00 Its been about 6 months. no leaks & cools great even with summer temps of 118 degrees and AC running.
