Well, my Jeep blew a head today. I've got antifreeze squirting out the back right side of the engine.

Its a 2003 Liberty Renegade with 145200 miles on it. Should I fix it or junk it? My mod list is below.

Time for a new Jeep! How bout a 4 door JK Rubicon?

That sucks your KJ went kaput though, I feel for ya, I just did some carnage to mine so I know how it feels.

Fix it, think of all the good times you two have had together. Is it paid off, if it is, its a nobrainer then.

Agreed. Fix it. Then if it starts nickel & diming you to death, and you tire of that - trade it in on another Jeep.

Thanks for the input. It's getting fixed.

I dug into it deeper with flashlight and telescoping mirror. The antifreeze that was squirting out was actually coming from a heater supply hose. The antifreeze was shooting downward with a force and hitting something that deflected it out the side. Just glancing under the hood, it really looked like it was coming out of the exhaust manifold area on the back right side of the engine.

Glad you found an easy one to fix, and that you are keeping your KJ
