Hello!
Yesterday my TJ started leaking like crazy, what I thought was oil. I get under her and start ripping stuff apart to find out it was coolant mixing with road grim to look like oil. Eventually I take it apart and the waterpump seal went, so I just replaced the whole water pump. The leak has stopped but I noticed that the storage / secondary reservoir is constantly gurgling once she is running at temperature. The radiator and cooling was filled correctly, and it 'drank' all the fluid and it's operating fine. I am just curious if anyone knows if the gurgling / bubbling I am hearing is pressure releasing and if so where / what is the cause of this high pressure? It would make sense if its overpressurized since that seal went in the water pump, but again I am not entirely sure. New to Tj's. For reference it is an 04 2.4L 4 banger, NOT the 2.5
Thank you!
