Keeping it Cool Radiator Install - Jeep Cherokee XJ - The Roadhouse
Рет қаралды 42,369
7 жыл бұрынJeep Cherokee's have a hard enough time with their cooling system, So if your radiator sprung a leak, you're not helping anything by keeping it that way. Out with the old and in with the new!
In Today's episode, Clyde and Tommy take on the task of changing the radiator out for a new one on their '93 Jeep Cherokee. What seems to be a medial task, quickly escalates. See the unexpected unfold as I try to write this description as if it were for a Disney Movie.

Awesome video fellas. My 99 had that stop leak SHT in it when I bought it 6 years ago. Flushed the system thoroughly and put a new radiator in it then. Three years later I hit a deer, and had to put a second radiator in it. Fast forward to yesterday when I checked the coolant, and found it SHT brown, and full of what looked like dirt! After draining the system and pulling the hoses I determined that at some point on my last wheeling trip a left over chunk of that stuff must have broken loose and was in the system. So 6 years later I'm still dealing with that nasty SHT! Also another tip. if any of you're hoses are old replace them. I found that my heater hoses where really rough inside like the rubber was starting to break down, and also don't forget coolant has a life span. As it gets old the lubrication properties of it start to fail, and it will start to turn slightly acidic. It will start eating away at the internal passages of the system.

After installing the Hood Vents, we'v had a tough time getting up to operating temp. Removed the clutch fan and things haven't been better. The secondary fan kicks on when the thermostat opens and moderates engine temp perfectly. Saw no reason to spend the extra cash. Cheers Bud!

Why did you not keep the condenser fan when you converted the AC compressor to be an air compressor? I mean that fan does help cool the radiator better than just having the one fan.

@PabstBoys 7 жыл бұрын
We removed the clutch fan because it pulls a lot of the snap out of your throttle, and we don't have any cooling issues now after installing the hood vents. Actually had a hard time getting to operating temp till the fan was gone. The electric back up fan turns on just as the thermostat opens. it's perfect. Cheers!!

Well, I'd make sure your cap and rotor are sealed or cracked and seal up the connections with dielectric grease. check your plug wires as well. I'v also heard of guys running deflection flaps made out of rubber to keep the splashing down. hope that helps.

Haha. Hey not so cool Clide....Awesome Show..... like Thommy i also dont know that bee cool stuff... But while talkin bout Radiators... I figured out that, when u drive around in slow speed and your Fan kicks on and you have to stop and turn off your engine it also kills the fan. Do you got eny ideas how to solve that Problem? I found a Radiator who got a add. port for a themp sensor like the non HO models got and i put a seperate Relais in there but it only kicks on wen the Radiator is realy hot not if only the engine realy hot... Lets see if you have a gloryouse idea...
@PabstBoys 7 жыл бұрын
Hahahaha. Love the intentional typo's. def got our attention. First off. if you're overheating, don't shut the engine off. You're killing the water pump and at that point the effects of the fan still running is negligible. "Heat Soak" is a term used for when you shut off your engine at a normal operating temp and because the cooling system is no longer working, the engine will reach higher than desired temps. XJ's have a real issue with this. You may have heard of them getting vapor lock in the fuel rail..... it's caused from heat soak boiling the fuel in the rail. Our solution to this was installing hood vents, and let me tell ya. it's been working out great. Hope this helps. Cheers Bud!!
