I am currently in the process of repairing a line on my 97 wrangler which is leaking right now. I called the dealer and they want 41 for the tube and then it has been redesigned so there are two connections that need to be ordered. One is 31 and the other is 8 bucks. The dealer can't get the parts for an entire week.... isn't that the way it always is with a dealer.
So the option that I am going to go with after reading some other sites is to take the line off and take it to an auto parts store and get a compression fitting. I will cut it at the hole and put the line back together with the compression fitting. I am below a novice mechanic and I am pretty sure that I can achieve this. So, the fix will be less than 10 dollars.
The line is easy to disconnect from the radiator but I am not sure about the connection of the line to the transmission. That will be the tricky part. However, even if I can't take it off at the transmission I can always cut it with it still connected to the transmission and repair it that way.
OOOORRRR why not just wrap a piece of rubber or neoprene hose around it and put a couple of gear clamps on it if it's just a leaking line.
The rear, or tail shaft, of a transmission has a seal around the output shaft. The drive shaft will have to be removed and the seal replaced.
There are many reasons why a Jeep Wrangler is overheating. A leak in the radiator system will cause overheating. Too much pressure in the engine can cause overheating. A bad water pump or thermostat could cause overheating. The transmission can also cause overheating if it is leaking.
Leaking heater core
check your transmission check your hoses for leaks and check your fluids but check your transmission first
You probably have a vacuum leak.
Either the output seal on the trans or the input seal on the transfer case has failed. You will need to remove the transfer case to change both seals.
The repair on the transmission line will depend on where it is. If the leak is at a coupling then the joint may be able to be tightened. If the line itself if leaking or split then it will have to be replaced.
If it is leaking at the bottom where it sets into transmission--shouldbe an "O" ring seal
You will need to replasce the heater core.
I believe it is behind the rear passenger tire. You have to pull out the plastic in the wheel well to get to it.
Yes, the studs break off of the head at the ends of the manifold.
The most common cause for surging is a vacuum leak
