Trying to diagnos my slight issue of overheating. I have had the system flushed and burped, and pressure tested, and it is fine. However, I still get a faint whif of coolant when I walk by the Jeep and cant figure out where it is coming from.
The XJ runs over 210, by just about a needles thickness or more when driving in town. It runs hot on the highway too. Yesterday it jumped to almost the redline when I exited the highway and my spped was around 25mph.
So here are my questions:
How do I check to see if the fan clutch is bad or not?
How do I check the t-stat and various other things.
I guess what I am looking for is the trouble-shooting process that will go from the simplest solution, to the most complicated, eliminating factors on the way.
Thanks for the help.
