My XJ is having a problem getting a bit too hot when idle (Traffic, Stop Light..etc) and when driving uphill. I never let it get to the RED but it get very close, very fast. As soon as i get going (on level terrain), turn off the AC the temp drops very quickly to normal.
Before summer i flushed the system and should add that the Radiator/Hoses/Thermostat were all replaced less than 2 years ago and the Fan Clutch and Pump not more than 3 years. All the reading i have done points to a weak Fan clutch ?
Some Additional Points, that might be relevant...
1. 4.5" Lift with 32" Tires Stock Gearing.
2. E-Fan Comes on with AC and when temp reaches 225F.
3. Trans cooler installed on the middle of Radiator.
Some advice or suggestions would be highly appreciated.
