Ok- I have a couple Q's. I have been reading all the past months posting on cooling (a hot topic...) I almost blew up my engine a couple years ago when my water pump broke and now I'm totally paranoid about overheating. I've replaced the radiator but never the t-stat. I've never checked my running temp but it sure feels hot. I know they run at 210, maybe I just dont know what that FEELS like. So I changed my temp sensor (it was broken) and ended up breaking the electrical connector. Got new one from junkyard but..now although my temp light flashes constantly my electric fan is on all the time..is this ok? It sure feels like it runs a little cooler, although louder.
Other Q's: exactly What K & M (?) Air filter should I get to replace my current stock (and old) one? I've heard there are a few options for the 4.0, whats the best? Also, I've heard of people cutting holes and putting vents in the hood of the XJ- is this ok to do? Finally, if I have to knock my starter with a hammer to start it, what is going on and how to fix...?
Thanks for any help- this site rules.
