    I guess I should have added that we've basically done everything you can do to address over heating. New: 3 row aluminum radiator, OEM water-pump, fans all over the place, electric and mechanical...

    dzJeepChic's '92 XJ Expedition Vehicle Project

    Man we're having some overheating issues. Clifford will idle it all day long, even with the A/C on, and run at normal operating temperature. As soon as you put the vehicle under any sort of load, namely driving up a hill, it heats up. Notice that's the opposite of practically every 'XJ...

    Poor Clifford had his annual physical today at the emissions testing facility in North Scottsdale. To start with, I completely embarassed the poor kid getting in the wrong line, so when we were 2 cars back, and could finally read the fine print, the technicians had to move pylons so we could...
