(Searched and couldn't find this combo of issues.)
Girlfriend called panicked, Jeep overheated today and most of the coolant steamed out. After it cooled down, I put more coolant in, cranked it up and let it run with the cap off the bottle and it immediately started gurgling and bubbling but didn't seem to be hot yet. Turned on the heater, drove it a little. Coolant was not leaking, but it overheated again very quickly and the heater never started blowing hot. It was about 50 degrees outside and the heater was blowing cool air and never warmed up. Then I noticed the small electric fan was not blowing. Is that always supposed to be on or just when hot? Replaced t-stat with a cheap one a couple of years ago.
Limited money, limited time. What should i do first? Thanks, guys.
