My son's 2000 TJ is overheating. It has 140k miles and other than this, runs like a top. Overheating happens when sitting still. You can hear the coolant boiling when engine is turned off. It seems as though the fan is operating correctly. Coolant is correct color/consistency. I have replaced thermostat. I have "burped" the air from the system. I plan on replacing the radiator cap tomorrow. The other things I can think of are paying a shop to do a full flush and if that does not work replace the water pump and then the radiator.
Are these the correct next steps? Any other suggestions? Trying to finish before Sunday when he wants to take it back to college. Any help would be appreciated.
