I had a new thermostat put in my 2000 XJ about one month ago. The jeep drove flawlessly for that time period until about two weeks ago. One morning I go out to start the Jeep and she was overheating within 15 minutes of starting it. I live in Montana, so it’s been about -10 most mornings. Anyway, I now think the thermostat is stuck in the closed position. The upper radiator hose is cool to touch, so I know there isn’t any coolant being run through it. Unless if anyone else has some ideas, I guess I need to buy a new thermostat and try again. This time I will be installing the thermostat myself.
