My 98 has ABS brakes, the first for me, my 87 XJ has standard brakes, the 98 seems shitty but I thought it was the ABS. Handling wise new shocks and the 98 feels great on or off road.

Truth is that your driving style and the terrain you drive on will make the difference in mileage from one poster to the other. With the 5.2 the potential to burn more fuel is there no doubt, that don't mean you will though.

I have both a XJ 4.ol and a ZJ 5.2L and with my driving the millage is close to the same 16-18. The 318 kicks ass though, I love it.

If a new cap don't solve the problem I would pressure test the system. You can also find a leak if there is one by reading the spark plugs, look for one that looks supper clean, like new and thats where the leak is. I have run my 78 cherokee without the fan and it didn't overheat. Some XJ's...

Have you replaced the turtle and cap yet?

You may have a blown head gasket making you think it's boiling over. Water don't boil until 212 deg's, when your system pressurizes the water temp is 220 but won't boil because it's under pressure.

What years AW4's work/fit a 1987 Cherokee Chief 4.0l?

Or it did hurt MPG so they eliminated it.

Well one thing to think about is with the TC unlocked you have more torque to work with, and thats whats needed when towing. Like I said before a better name for that switch would have been "Power", "Economy"

It's to bad we can't have radios like that in the US.

When looking for parts I use Jeep

I just replaced it with a Performance two row Aluminum 78 PAL, it runs cooler than it did with the Brass three row.

Just wanted to post back it was the tranny cooler in my CFS three row.

If you are reusing old parts they should be put back exactly where they were removed from.

I'm thinking you may be correct, any way to be sure?
