Thanks FutureXJOwner! That was just what I was looking for. I've already placed my order. :wave1:

I need a coolant reservoir. This is for my '87, 4.0L. You know, the one with the closed cooling system. The reservoir sits up next to the passenger side firewall and is held on with a big rubber retaining strap. The OE lasted over 200K miles before I replaced. It was still working, but I...

Thanks guys. BTW it was my local Jeep dealer that said it took 3lbs. I'm going to check with my local AC shop, look for a tag under the hood and check the current price of R12. But now I know I will need less than I thought. Also, I do intend to have the work done by the professionals. I do...
