Well i change the oil every 5k (or sooner sometimes) and I probably won’t keep the jeep for that long. Won’t be my problem when the sludge finally happens haha
Makes me feel better when I’m driving around in the 110° Deep South Texas heat.
I’ve been running 5w30 for the past 2 changes. I also have the RPM fan controller (I’m sure this will add another 10 pages to this thread) but highest I see is 203° oil (takes a while to get there) and 206° coolant.
I’ll go back to 0w20 for the summer months and see what the temps look like then…
I bought the cheapest Michelins at Walmart. $15 for the pair. They wipe better than the $50/pair Michelin endurance XTs that I had on previously.
my uneducated opinion is because those beam style are meant for curved windshields and the gladiator has a generally flat one. If you wanted a beam...
so ideally you’d make sure your tire pressures are good when your load changes significantly, right?
Again, not if you’re running any tire OTHER than what came stock. Larger tires are usually different ply which also mean different carrying capacities at different PSI.
I think it’s needs to recalibrate under certain circumstances. Back in the day ford trucks had it in the manual to do a slow figure 8 to calibrate their compass. Try just driving it around the block a time or 2 in both directions. Clockwise and counterclockwise.
