Chances are the temp sensor is bad. It should be either in the front of the head or near the thermostat.

IF I PLUGGED THE INFO IN CORRECTLY--THIS FITS A 2.5 LITER AND A 4.0 LITER

LOOKS VERY SIMILAR TO ONE FOR A CJ, 'CEPT CJ HAS A STUD TYPE CONNECTOR, THIS ONE HAS A BLACK PLASTIC CONNECTOR

THE HEX IS NOT BIG--MOST LIKELY A 1/2 OR A 9/16 SOCKET OR WRENCH

KEEP US POSTED ON PROGRESS
