I have a 01 xj 4.0
Replaced the radiator to a 2 row aluminum with 3-10" electric fans running zerex
G05. Everything was good. The other day after running around town I took a call so I let it run with the ac on. After 3-5 minutes the temp jumped (not crawled) to 250. I shut it down. Drove it home once cool and no issue.
It did it again the other day so I swapped out the temp sensor. Still did it. Swap t-stat and water pump, new coolant then burped system. While I had everything off I stuck a hose in the t stat housing and the heater core hoses. All came out clear. Replace radiator cap. Still jumps to 250 after a bit.
No oil in water, no water in oil.
No smoke
No smell
Any idea? I've search everywhere Google can supply and haven't seen anyone posted this issue.
Note** I did notice that it seems less likely to happen with cap off. I let run 20 with ac on cap off no issue. Put cap on and within 10 mins it happen again.
