I have searched this forum and am at the end of my rope...not sure what the problem is. Here is the list of things I have done and my XJ still overheats.
98 XJ 4.0, automatic
replaced: Heater core, Evap Core, thermostat, rad. cap, head gasket, had head resurfaced, water pump.
Coolant was a rusty orange color. Cannot find the petcock on the radiator, I just removed the lower hose and flushed it out until it was clear.
I know this is my first post as I have been lurking for a while, and hate posting for help without helping out first but this problem has me frustrated. Thinking about just replacing the radiator as maybe it is clogged up.
I do have the heater core bypassed for now until I flush the rad again, and the hose may be slightly kinked.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!!
