Can anyone send me a location picture with part number, or tell me where it is? thanks. are they the same as the 4.0L V8 ones or are they different.?
Did you bleed the system correctly after your work on the cooling system which is described in the Rave CD? If you did you may be seeing signs of Head Gasket failure.
