Ok, In the past 6 months Ive replaced my: Thermostat housing, thermostat, radiator, a/c condenser, and water pump.
Originally had a 160* thermo in my jeep, and I started getting overeating issues, immediately i thought it was the wrong thermo, of course.
So last weekend, replaced the thermostat with a factory 195* and did a deep flush of the block and the radiator.
Ran my jeep on the street for a total of about 4 hours in the last week, never peeked 210.
I start offroading last night, for a good 20 minutes, and all the sudden it just SPIKES HIGH!!!
Overheating like a mofo.... Relieve the pressure from the system, let her sit, and it cooled down to 210 again... run it for 2 minutes MAYBE just babying her, and im already kissing the red line again...
What can I do? Whats next? Whats left to replace?
