Cooling Problem, 88 wagoneer xj, 4L V6
I recently picked up an 88 wagoneer from a buddy of mine. It ran fine up until a few days ago it started having intermittent cooling issues. The problem is consistent now.
In a nutshell: Runs hot while idling, will cool down to normal operating temp when i rev to 1500+ rpm.
just put a thermostat in a few days ago, there wasnt one when i bought it. read that not having a t-stat can cause it to run hot.
Burped it through the sensor in back of head today. same problem persists
Ideas? any help is appreciated, trying to fix it before this weekend!!
Radiator bad?
Water pump?
