I have a '96 auto 4.0 Cherokee with a new modine radiator, water pump, thermostat housing, and dealer thermostat.
I drove the Jeep for a good four hours yesterday. The engine never seemed to fully warm up. The temp needle would only rise to the mark inbetween 100* and 210*. I would say approx 160 degrees? Occasionally it would creep a little bit above, but never where it should have been.
Does it sound like my 5 month old thermostat is bad?
Maybe it was just me, but I did notice the heater worked unsually well.
