6 inches here in west chester

I work 40 minutes away and yet I'm on time. Roads didn't get plowed much here. A lot of guys live nearer to work and they didn't show up. Wussies. Jeep life! Lol

Good luck, everyone that ordered is either getting called or emailed that "they are out of stock" to cover up their fug up. Theres a thread started on here somewhere.

What's the chances the thermostat on my jeep went bad? On cold days. It barely go past 120 degrees and on semi cold days, it would only go to 160 degrees.

I'd say that's pretty accurate. I thought my Napa stat was bad. I replaced it with one from the stealership...removed the old one, turns out Napa T-stats are the same as OEM now--which would be MotoRad. The only difference was the jiggle pin. My jeep temp runs perfect around 197, but heat sucked...that alone should've told me my heater core is clogged again, I suppose. Going to be flushing it again this evening.

very high - sounds like it's stuck open.

It should easily get up to 180-190 and stay there on cold days. Ignoring the whole no heat aspect your engine is going to run like poop too and burn a lot more fuel

There was something along the lines of this that I read about a while back. Was cheap "racing seats" for like 50 bucks a seat. Some people managed to get them, then all of a sudden "we are out of stock" and "we don't carry them anymore". then a few weeks later they put them back up at like 150 a piece. I have a feeling jcwhittney has someone that likes to screw with people. I would try packing the order online, then when they denny it, freak out and threaten them. If that gets you no where, wait a few weeks for them to re list at normal price and call and ***** threatening with the BBB and what not.

Damn I guess I ll change out the thermostat when it is not freezing outside lol.

Another question. If the head gasket is blown but the oil and coolant doesn't mix... Am I able to drive it to a garage?
