Early this morning I removed the thermostat completely. After
running for about 10 minutes I could feel heat on the top of the
radiator so I knew water was circulating now. The needle on my gauge
was about 3/4 of the way to hot and seemed to stay in that area. I
understand that this is a relative position and may vary from vehicle
to vehicle. I was able to hold on to the large hoses without burning
my hand. I could keep my hand on the top of the radiator for about 3
seconds before it became to hot. Is this about right? This isn't
overheating is it?

Thanks,
John

Well, the thermostat was indeed installed upside down. I corrected
it and started the engine. In about two minutes the engine heated
again (the needle went to H on the gauge) and again the hose from

the

thermostat was cool to touch while the others were too hot to

touch.

I probably need a new thermostat. What is the correct one and can
they be purchased locally at NAPA or will I have to order one from

a

jeep supply house?

Mine is stamped 192.

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.

I closed it completely and it seems my engine got hot fast.

That's a great idea as just two days ago it took me 2 hours or so and
a skinned up knuckle just to install that very bolt!

John

Martin hello:

I got a bolt that was about 2 to 3 inches longer
than the original bolt. Next, I placed a nut on
the bolt at about one inch from the threaded end.

I then brazed or welded, I can't remember exactly,
this nut onto the longer bolt.

Although the need to remove the fuel pump is quite
rare... it is so easy to get the fuel pump off in any situation,
once the bolts are an extended length.

I had a friend from Dubbo (Aust) visiting NY
We drove a jeep for about 40 miles when suddenly, the
jeep was coughing and sputtering to a dead stop.

I had only a scant few tools with me but luckily I had used
the longer bolts and therefore was easily able to remove
the pump and discover the problem.
(one of the round flapper discs had worn away to the point
there was no fuel pressure)
Robbo
at the Sheep Dip cafe' & Jeep Ewe'porium
Near Syracuse, Upstate NY

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

Here's a good photo of the thermostat in the proper position.

Hello, Did you try to run it without the thermostat
Jim

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.
This starts the flow and helps heat the thermostat.

I opened this valve and find the hose connected to get hot fairly
quickly. I then felt the large hose going to the bottom of the
radiator and it too is hot. However, the large hose to the top

of

the radiator is cool. The gauge shows the engine getting hot in

only

a couple of minutes so I shut it down. Since this is the first

time

I put coolant in it is there something I am missing?

Thanks,
John

On the rear of my engine is a water valve that directs flow

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

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

I closed it completely and it seems my engine got hot fast.

Well, the thermostat was indeed installed upside down. I corrected
it and started the engine. In about two minutes the engine heated
again (the needle went to H on the gauge) and again the hose from the
thermostat was cool to touch while the others were too hot to touch.
I probably need a new thermostat. What is the correct one and can
they be purchased locally at NAPA or will I have to order one from a
jeep supply house?

Mine is stamped 192.

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.

tomorrow.

John

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.

RJ

So what does an upside down thermostat look like? I'll look at it

John,

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.

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.

I closed it completely and it seems my engine got hot fast.

Thanks,
John

I opened this valve and find the hose connected to get hot fairly
quickly. I then felt the large hose going to the bottom of the
radiator and it too is hot. However, the large hose to the top of
the radiator is cool. The gauge shows the engine getting hot in only
a couple of minutes so I shut it down. Since this is the first time
I put coolant in it is there something I am missing?

Thanks,
John

Hi Tobias,



For a modification of my parking brake I made a print to size of the parking
brake system, including part of the back of the transfercase. For whatever
it’s worth I’ll mail it to you. May be it’ll be of help for starting
sketching.



Regards,

Robert

Thanks Robert!
Its true and I think I found the ideal spot for where the motor could go!
Right next to the drive shaft to the rear differential. behind the
transfercase there is plenty of space on my CJ7!
The motor could be geared to the axis where the drive shaft connects this
way one would have the option to drive electrically with Transfercase or
gearbox in neutral, and one could even do electric 4WD!

Those Briggs and Straton etek motors or newer Perm(anent Magnet) 132 are
amazingly light and small at 8-15 HP.
I have to start make some spread sheets on torque from standstill, max speed
and potential range.
Of course I expect to find problems there... I know that most electric
conversions replace the motor and use the gear box to gear for torque or
speed as necessary!

This etek went for just over 300 bucks...

I think a very interesting idea, although not something I am considering
for
my Willys.



However, in a previous job I was working on using a stirling engine (close
to a hot-air engine) for use in a bus, so that explains my interest.



Disadvantage of connecting the electrical motor to either the front or
rear
axle is the added unsprung weight, and that the asymmetric weight of the
E-motor on the axle will cause the axle to rotate (leaf springs are
flexible
by the nature of the beast). And adding more weight to the axle will also
increase the tendency of the axle "to jump around the place" when the road
gets worse. For me it would be a NoNo to add any substantial weight
directly
to the axle.



But what about this? There may be another point to connect the E-motor to.

And that is the end of the transmission (of the T90). There you can
connect
an overdrive to, so an electrical motor should also be possible. The
E-motor
would always be spinning, but depending on the mode, it would act as a
generator to load the batteries, or as the engine driving the car alone or
even in combination with the gasoline engine. Extra boost! Extra
advantage:
the E-motor is not connected to the axle.



Stay in touch, very interested to hear where it will be going, and I am
sure
the Willys Gods will smile at the experiment.

Hey everybody!
I'm new to this list, just subscribed, and im happy to see how active this
group is!

With rising fuel prizes and all I have been thinking...
What if I removed the rear drive shaft and placed an electric motor there

Then I could drive on batteries for the short local hauls
and when I run down the battery I can simply lock the front hubs and
continue driving with the normal motor...

Anybody ever try that?

I have an 84 CJ7 with the 4.2l inline 6
