    Coolant Filter install - 2000 XJ

    Alright I think I solved my weird problems. I figured I'd post just in case someone else runs into something similar. So I flushed the heater core back and forth a few more times for good measure but didn't get much out of it. A buddy suggested I fill the overflow reservoir halfway even though...

    Coolant Filter install - 2000 XJ

    Ya it is. I originally thought it was an oil leak but that proved not to be the case after testing. I'm chocking it up to the previous owner either completely neglecting the coolant system or using dex cool or stop leak. With that said I do have an update that's kind of bad news. I back flushed...

    I doubt it's that. When I flushed I was getting clear water so i'd expect at least a week or two before it fully gets clogged with rust scale. @trippled wouldn't the air pocket have moved to the overflow after driving the vehicle for 40 mins? I made sure to squeeze all the hoses while the...

    Coolant Filter install - 2000 XJ

    Hey guys. So I just went through this MOD on my 99 XJ and am running into a bit of a problem. My defrost and heat are almost non-existent now. After flooring it on the highway I have mild heat but defrost is still blowing cold. I'm also noticing the usual 190 engine temp that my jeep has is now...
