Thanks Rodge... great run down on one of the most commented/posted/talked about topics regarding the good O'll XJ... for a new comer to the brand of JEEP, its certainly great to read your experiences/comments... Ive changed most things on my cooling sys even putting in new welsh plugs when I got the jeep last year and shes running great here in hot/humid Brisbane..runs at 97deg in most instances, never goes over 105 in crawling daily traffic...I use a alloy friendly 50/50 mix of NULON ULTRA COOL.. it contains no Glycol. Its formulated to keep rust/scale /sludge/corosion and electolysis away... seems to work well.. I removed the bulky plenium chamber box that sits on the intake and fitted a older xj intake hose to stop heat soak, also removed the lower skid plate.

thanks
Steve
