    I've spun bearings on every 3.7 I've owned..

    So the cold viscosity is super important. 5W is the viscosity when cold. 30 is the viscosity at operating Temps. Essentially the lower number determines how well the oil will flow/lube on cold start or winter (W stands for winter) and the 30 is its flow/lubrication when engine is hot. Typically...

    I'm looking at the procedure and it doesn't say anything about removing the control arms, just one of the cam bolts. Below is the procedure.

    gas cap fault but not gas cap

    You try to pinch of the hose at the vent valve hose and see if that will pressurize the system and check for leaks that way. What year of KJ do you have?

    Temp going up when going over 60 mph in highway for long time

    If you do indeed have the clutch fan (heavy duty cooling), your plug and play fan options will need to be for that set up (standard duty shroud won't clear the clutch fan assembly). The shroud is different and the fan module(size) is smaller than the standard duty cooling that has a larger...

    Temp going up when going over 60 mph in highway for long time

    Interesting. A weak cap typically releases coolant through the cap (it will also have a soft rad hose when at operating temp) vs having bubbles come up. Bubbles in the cooling system (assuming it's not coolant being pushed into the expansion tank through the bypass, splashing around and creating...

    Temp going up when going over 60 mph in highway for long time

    Well if your vehicle has a known head gasket leak, then you have your over heating issue..... High RPM, and in cylinder pressure can definitely over come coolant pressure and cause over heating, especially at highway speeds. It is possible to have combustion chamber gasses enter the cooling...

    Temp going up when going over 60 mph in highway for long time

    Thermostat (spring side) will be facing the engine. If it's facing the rad, then it's backwards. Did replacing the expansion tank cap making the bubbles go away?

    Temp going up when going over 60 mph in highway for long time

    You have been given a lot of good ideas here. Have you notice the coolant boiling over when transitioning from highway, then coming to a stop light for example? Once you verify fan(s) and fan clutch are all functioning, including rad (which is said to be new), thermostat and water pump are good...

    Question about 4.7L V8 in the WJ/WK/XK — need advice

    You can try using a synthetic oil or a semi synthetic oil to help with oil flow/cooling. Only down side is with the consistently sized molecules some run into burning oil. Mine doesn't burn, but my nieces does.

    Your diesel Liberty should already have 4.10 gearing. Search your vin and verify the exact vehicle configuration and options or contact your local dealer.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Good work. Try with a little less solder next time. I will keep the same strength, but will allow the wire in that spot to flex, and be less likely to become brittle and crack. We can't have ourselves working more than we need to:p
