Hey all,
About 4-5 months ago I replaced my radiator along with the hoses, thermostat and water pump.
Jeep ran great until today. Normal temps have been right at 210" but it was running a click over at 230* today. Granted, its getting warmer, but it shouldn't wander far off 210*. Seemed like it was getting hotter at freeway speeds, so that rules out the fan clutch.
I took a peek into the overflow tank and noticed 2 things
1. looks kinda brown again, expected... the previous owner neglected the system and I may not have flushed it enough
2. there seems to be an oily sheen over it... I immediately looked into the oil cap and thankfully no milky signs
The second part kind of concerns me. Should I just do a flush again and see where it takes me? Please tell me the head gasket isn't knocking on heavens gates.
Thanks!
