I am getting very low heat in my 1998 Jeep Cherokee Could this simply a problem with the thermostat since I recently replaced the radiator If so is the thermostat easy to replace?

Yes, the thermostat would be a very good candidate. Follow the top radiator hose back to the engine block. The hose connects to a housing that is bolted to the engine. Remove the hose, remove the two bolts that hold the housing and the thermostat should be right under it. Make sure that you thoroughly clean the surfaces, both the housing and the engine before you try to put it all back together. Some thermostats hosings are sealed with a gasket, others are sealed with a rubber seal. Whichever yours has, make sure you replace the seal. While you're at it, inspect the hoses and replace any that are bulging, leaking or brittle. Fill the coolant reservoir with fresh coolant after you have put everything back together. It's a very easy fix and should help with the heat.


How do you unplug radiator drain-cock in jeep Cherokee?

the line is a quick disconnect. Take a pair of pliers and GENTLY squeeze the white tabs going into the rubber part of the line. As you are squeezing, pull on the rubber piece of the line and it should come right off. Same thing for the transmission end of the line.

You may possibly have air in the system. Or your thermostat is not opening and closing properly. Double check that it was put on correctly. It wouldn't hurt to call a mechanic. From personal experience, I find I get better answers from neighborhood mechanics, than dealerships.

Why does the coolant fill up the reservoir and not return back to the radiator leaving the radiator bone-dry on a 93 Honda Civic DX?

Hey Ken==The radiator cap isn't sealing. Replace it. GoodluckJoe If replacing the radiator cap is not enough then look at your radiator as the problem. Your radiator when the car is running should be the same temperature top to bottom. Run your hand down the radiator (careful you can burn yourself) and see if it is cool toward the bottom. If it is cool at the bottom but hot at the top your radiator is clogged. Flush does not work so save your money. I would start looking online for a new radiator their cheap enough. Good luck. -mspolyar If it still vents with a new cap then the excessive pressure could be due to a blown head gasket pushing combustion pressure into the coolant system, if the vehicle has been overheated recently it is a good possibility I had the same problem. Check your upper and lower radiator hoses. You might also need to replace your thermostat. The thermostat is a spring seal for coolant. These get stuck open and closed often for civics in the 1990's. I had to replace mine 2 times within a month. Part of it was my fault, because i drove it like i stole it. When your engine gets hot, the thermostat opens up and lets coolant in. When it is too cold, it closes and doesn't let coolant into your engine so it will warm up. Your thermostat probably got stuck closed. Also, check the little hose running from the reservoir tank to the radiator, it might be clogged.

What happens if the car radiator becomes blocked?

- Engine temperature is high - Could also be the thermostat (if no heat from heater) - It is possible to see the fluid flow by removing the radiator cap and looking in. How: Do not do this if the engine is hot or if the engine was recently run. Let the engine cool for 3 hours first. Remove the cap when the engine is cold. Start the engine. As the engine heats up (maybe two minutes) the thermostat will (should) open and you should see fluid flowing. May need a flash light to see into the radiator. - If some of the narrow channels in the engine block are clogged you may hear the radiator boiling after the engine has turned off.
