I have a 1990 Laredo Automatic blah blah blah.
just put new thermostat, lower hose and resevoir with new hoses going to it. just did my headgasket3 weeks ago.
Driving around town and even going on the highway locally for short periods of time (30-45min) the jeep drives awesome.. never overheats etc etc. stays at 210 or below usually.
recently we were taking a trip to Somerset, PA and the highway to there is very hilly and mountainous.
my temp guage stopped working and is MAXED out passed red... even when off and cold. bout 1 1/2 to 2 hours into the trip, i started noticing a coolant smell. we pull over and i open my hood and my resevoir cracked and started shooting steam out of it.
im confused as to why my shit keeps overheating when on long trips like this? could it be my radiator having mud on it?
also why would my temp guage randomly stop working and read passed red?
