a jeep does not simply "leak" oil or coolant it just marks its territory... your jeep is just showing off....
The temp stayed between the line between 100 and 210, (how much is that line anyways) and when it even though about getting near 210 it went back down, the aux fan didn't even have to kick in.
Next order of business is running some Seafoam, tune-up and valve cover gasket.
I got the t-stat housing tight enough now no leak.
I could visually see it seeping from the top of the water pump. Kinda near the top bolt on that housing just below the t-stat housing.
Got the new valve cover gasket in. Interestingly it's made out of cork so we'll see how that holds up. There was some awesome sludge in there too. Cleaned out what I could.
Broke that front hose on the valve cover while at it =)
Run a diesel motor oil, it will de-sludge the engine. Shell Rotella 10w30 dino is my choice.
So that Rotella stuff eh...
So do an oil change + Napa Gold filter... that'll desludge it and then will I need to do another oil change before the 3-4k miles or what?
