so I'm replacing the t-stat on my 86 cherokee. the other day I let it sit and idle (an hour or so...i forgot about it) and come out to a sweet smell. leakin everywhere and blew a line. so, replacing all that, and I have a new water pump and t-stat for it anyways as well as heater lines.

 

anyways, I get her all torn down and pop the housing off....no thermostat?

 

I'll post pics. this thing was seriously running with no thermostat. no frickin wonder it was cold as hell. now let's see if the water pump still has the impeller :nuts: :rotfl2:

 

psh. i'm sick of workin on these things...i just want somethin to go right for a change (so, unfortunately a brand new jeep won't do me any good either...POS's :roll: )

 

i'll post pics l8r

youre just having a bad day. I tore the brakes apart on the XJ lastnight and found NOTHING connected on one side.

haha, not only that, but the upper rad line and both heater lines had gashes in them from blowing out. the power steering is also fixed now (leaking input shaft.....) and I just finished the job. now i gotta wash the motor and get all the damned anti-freeze off of it. in a couple days I'll toss the skid plate back on...had to take it off for this and it's a B*TCH to do so it stays off til i'm sure it's fixed.
