1996 4.0 AW4 w/ 171,000. Ok I changed out the idiot light cluster so now I know my temp. It runs above 210 always. Recently when sitting at idle for more then a couple minutes it gets almost to the red, but not quite, then when I drive again it goes right back down to a little past 210.
It had a brand new radiator about 1000 miles before I got it, no electric cooling fan, I put a used one in.
My 94 used to run below 210 at all times with no electric fan even in mid summer while off-road.
Should I just try flushing it out and refilling, or could it be something more. I remember when I put the elec. fan in it didn't spin as freely as I thought it should, but ive watched it turn on and it seems to be fine. any ideas? thanks
