Hello Jeep Gurus,
I’m having some issues with my stroker overheating. I’ve read through a lot of the past threads on overheating and have tried just about everything.
It runs right at 180 when driving on the highway, but goes redline when going uphill or under heavy load. The engine is freshly built with less than 500 miles.
Here are some of the specifics:
1992 XJ
New radiator.
New fan-clutch
New 16lb radiator cap.
New high flow water pump.
New 180 degree thermostat.
Ford 24lb injectors.
Adjustable MAP sensor input.
New Fuel Pump.
New hoses and belt.
New external auto transmission cooler.
All fluids are fresh. The system has been burped. The aux. fan is kicking on. The fan shroud is in place and is in good shape. The MAP has been adjusted from baseline to rich, (approx. 5.40) with no noticeable difference in the temp.
The engine has a bored throttle-body, with a spacer and a high flow filter. It’s running a Clifford header, new pipes, new low restriction muffler and CAT. The O2 sensor is new and is attached to a bung on the header.
It runs great other than the over-heating problem. I’d appreciate any input.
