At first I thought I didn’t have any antifreeze in it...
Then every time I would add it it’ll just stay at 210....
It just so happens I came back from my trip to Chicago and I went to start it up the belt squeeled if it was loose when I popped the hood the top part of the engine was wet and noticed bubbles coming from the top of the water pump...
So I ordered a pump and when I removed it I noticed the fins were pretty much gone...lucky I guess! Thanks Jeep Gods!

Back safe guys. This weekend will be the deciding factor on starting my MJ teardown, rebuild and MPI swap.

Well, hoping Ford takes my offer on this 2013 Toyota Tacoma Prerunner I've been driving around. If so, it's going to be my DD and tow rig for the MJ. That and I can rip all the wiring and engine out to upgrade it all to 95+ wiring and components. Sorry guys (no I'm not. Lol) but I will NOT be putting a 96+ front grille on. That's staying Renix as it looks better to me.

Man, a lot of people getting irritated because I've been selling off a lot of my old Jeep parts instead of giving them away. Hey, the way I see it is, 1) I got a truck payment to make every month. 2) My MJ is nolonger my DD but now just a tinker toy so 3) there is no point in me stashing all this excess junk now.
IE: I got this swingout XJ (Renix body style) tire carrier for 75 bucks and my old Waggy taillights for 50 bucks. I don't think that's too bad at all. Hell, I already sold off both AX-15/231 combos for 150 a piece.
