OEM would be my choice....or the ones you already have. But I can be cheap says my ol' lady.

I know where one is sitting in the bushes in Central Oregon.

Nope. Cut the catalytic converter out and she runs like a stripped assed ape now. No more overheating problem. *I have two temperature sending units for the one gauge..... Had two gauges going at once. One would still get hot the 'new' one wouldn't.

put new temp sending unit and gauge in. That seemed to take care of my 'overheating' problem.:roll:

I put a new cap on when I did the radiator. I still haven't put the thermostat in. :redface: I don't drive her very often as I don't need to. (my job provides me a vehicle and fuel, makes it hard to drive my own)

Wouldn't it do this one it's own in the overflow reservoir?

Radiator hoses do not appear to collapse at higher RPM. I believe the temperature gauge to be in good working order. I will be replacing the thermostat either tomorrow or on Sunday or on Monday. I'll try to post back with results. Thank you for all of the replies.

I took her for a drive last night and I can watch the temperature gauge go from extreme heat to normal running temperature.

I just put in a new OEM style pump. My Jeep is not a fancy one, it is just a car that happens to be a Jeep. Heater works. Maybe the core is partially plugged but I doubt it because the radiator didn't really need to be boiled, the guy that fixed the leak in it did it as part of the service...

Nope.

Don't know what temperature of thermostat I have. I am assuming 210. Exterior fins are clean on radiator and nothing is blocking it. The heating problem only occurs while driving above 35MPH. Fan looks to be in good working order. Yes, I have a fan shroud and it is in good working order.

I'm not fuel injected. Thanks for the help. Anyone else with comments or suggestions, feel free to speak your mind.

Changed bottom radiator hose, the other ones looked fine and were very easy to get to so I left them. I will check them tomorrow. Do you recommend using a lower temperature thermostat? I live in a very mild part of the country, rarely gets really cold and rarely gets very hot. I am also hot...

'87 YJ 4.2 Problem; Water temperature will run too hot. Since I've had it, the water temperature gauge has run ~210*. Now it will like to run much higher and if I run her 'hard' it will darn near reach the red. Less than 2k miles ago, I replaced water pump because it was leaking. I...

I have 6 of those lights on the front of my duck boat.

I only need the the buckle side that bolts to the floor. I don't need the entire thing. Looking for a freebie but if you have a complete unit that you're selling, I'll pay a fair price for it. Location is NW OR.

I want to paint my jeep. I am going to do it myself. I have no training but have painted several duck boats and semi-trailers. How do you go about painting the firewall without removing everything? I was thinking taping things off but that seems like it would take just as long as removing...

Read the thread, that happened in February.

What is the advantage? to having a ford sedan fan? This is what you're talking about?:?:

my ex-girlfriend's brother did the UTI in sacramento then some volkswagon thing in rancho cucamunga. He gets steady work but has been completed for 3 years or so. His biggest gripe is that most of the dealerships share hours. ie. you do 60hrs worth of work in 40hrs other mechanic does...
