My jeep overheated this past weekend.. was driving up a gravel trail and the temp gauge was showing just over 210, didn't think much of it.. suddenly shot all the way up to 260 and check gauges light came on.. ended up just being the thermostat, hopefully my 0331 head survived the heat

It should be fine as long as thats the first time it happened and you didnt keep running it. Im having overheating issues myself, goes to almost 240 sitting still but goes back to 210 once in on the road and moving. If i stop it goes up fast, like really fastOriginally Posted by gregb091

all i gotta do is get a few compression fittings for my transmission cooler lines.
the damn ones that go in the transmission and are held in by plastic clips.
long story short i had it blow out on me on my way to harrisburg and left me sitting on the side of the road.
thats not the first time i had that problem. so im gonna change it all to a nice solid setup with compression fittings.
which is cheaper then buying new lines.
what time you guys planning all this?
