Default air hoses blow off

After starting jeep within minutes all the air hoses and dip stick blow off and out of engine. Was over heating previously. But now runs very rough and blows everything out. Does not stay running long enough to over heat.

Please post information about your Jeep in the original post in the future, including year and engine also engine displacement as there are multiple 6 and 8 cylinder engines across the production time line. People who can help you may give you wrong information as they have to guess which engine you have. With that much unknown all I can say is it sounds like you are getting above normal pressure within the engine oil section of your engine. I have no idea which engine would have air hoses, do you mean your coolant lines have no coolant in them?

From what you have said I would guess that either your rings are shot or your headgasket is blown in to the oil passage. The cylinder pressure is going in to the crank case some how.

With pressure like that, I'll bet your air filter is soaked with oil also.
