GUYS I have a cooling issue !!!
my 94 xj 6 cyl has some cooling issues
The temperature rises on the highway & in the city till it reaches 220, I used to stop open the hood turn on the AUx fan & it used to cool down in minutes, now it only goes up the only solution is to turn off the engine.
So I though that it was something to do with the thermostat so I removed it & installed it with no stat, turned on the engine blocked the rad & waited till the 220 mark, then unblocked the rad, turned on the AUX fan.
Nothing happens the needle is stationary for 5 minutes
But when I rev the engine to 3000 rpm a couple of times the needle instantly goes down.
so its not a stat
the water pump was changed 4 years ago & 35k miles ago.
HELP !! the wheeling season is about to begin & I am crippled
