CJ2A Oil Filter Pipes
mrtnmead
Thanks for help gratefully recieved in the past.
I have a new question: The pipe that carries oil to the oil filter is connected to the the front most hole on the engine block. Is this a requirement or can I change the position to the second port from the front? This is because I feel the oil pipe will lay better fromt that port as it is not in the way of the fuel pump. The fuel pump is hard enough as it is to remove (the front most bolt is difficult to access)without impeding access further with a pipe. BTW the pipes I have are not original but made up at a local hydraulic shop. Many Thanks Martin '48 CJ2A Bourke Aus. |

Re: [WT] F134 Cooling Circuit
John,
Right out of the FSM. I recommend a 160? version. That way straight water can be used. Also some people drill a small 1/16¡± to 1/8¡± hole in the thermostat flange.

Re: [WT] F134 Cooling Circuit
John,
Normally there is a "To Radiator" message stamped on one side. Here are 3 pictures showing the thermostat installed. The thermostat fits into a thermostat retainer which fits in the water outlet. The temperature sensor needs to be on the engine side. Some times there is a small hole drilled in the flange. Here are 3 links Ric -.

John,

While you have it out drill an 1/8" hole in the flange to allow air to bubble out. When you first fill with coolant you can get some air pockets and the L134 can run a little hot till they all get out. The hole helps speed this up. Make sure you keep topping off the coolant level until it finds the level it likes. Rick Mc '47 CJ2A Iowa So what does an upside down thermostat look like? I'll look at it tomorrow.

The non-Robertshaw type should have the wax capsule facing the engine.The side of the thermostat with the bridge in it that centers the wax capsule and valve should face the radiator.The Robertshaw type, working from fading memory, should have the bellows end facing the engine.

Re: F134 Cooling Circuit

Your correct. The valve was the first way to control the heat during the summer months. The reason it heats faster bypassing it is the heater core acts like a second radiator when the valve is open.

F134 Cooling Circuit
On the rear of my engine is a water valve that directs flow to the
heater in my cab. From the heater another hose runs to the water pump. I do not have my heater mounted yet but want to drive my truck. I connected a single hose directly from the valve to the water pump. It is necessary for this valve to be opened all the time for engine cooling to take place? I'm not certain if they opened in the winter months and closed it completely during the hot summer months when cab heat was not needed. Would someone please educate me on this matter.

bought a Allen driver to fit my impact driver, went home and gave it a shot. After several blows on the bolt the head was "stripped." So I resorted to Plan B by drilling out the bolt. This did slight damage to the hub because the bolt has a slightly tapered head. I think I will replace that bolt with a cap screw. If that doesn't work I may have to replace the hub. At least now I can completely disassemble the front hubs to clean and inspect the wheel and king pin bearings. Rodney Frey -----Original Message-----

Man,I can relate. Body work take a bunch of time. I have the cab and bed left to paint. But, those are the two biggest pieces. The rest of the parts all turned out pretty darn good. I don't like this paint tho. But, too late to use something else.

My rear fenders took the most time as they were really beat up. If I did it again I would just buy new fiberglass ones. The fellow that is doing my body work and paint is retired and works in his garage. It takes him a while to get things done but he does good work at a fair price. I'm still waiting on the bed and rear fenders. Once all is done he wants the assembled truck back for two days to "chicken shit" it, he says. There is still a lot to do on this truck and I wish I had more time to spend on it. Keep us posted as to your progress.
