Hey Gents-
I've recently purchased a 00' WJ w/ a 4.7 V8 and I have this weird coolant issue that is driving me nuts! I figure there must air in the system or something because when start it or drive it and specifically when I slow down or turn I can hear coolant being forced into reservoir. It sounds almost like a toilet flushing...I know strange but that's the best way I can describe it. I've drained the antifreeze and refilled as per the WJ Jeeps website to include cranking the heater up, getting to operating temp then letting it cool down. I did this three times like that website says and I still have the same water rushing sound? Any help or ideas is greatly appreciated!
And by the way, I'm a newbie here and I'm in complete awe of some of your rigs!
Thanks!
Shamus
