Re: [MBZ] OT use number 93 for a dead cat
You have to give them something to scratch, and encourage the behavior. We bred cats for a number of years (Chartreux) and would never consider declawing. We also never had a cat that clawed somewhere they should not. Gotta start them young, give them a post or a piece of carpet on a board, and encourage them to use it, and praise when they do. When they don't, you apply a squirt of water from a squirt bottle and give them a negative sound, such as a clap or hiss. That's unless they are clawing the dog, which I considered acceptable. Just like training for any other behavior, it takes some time and effort but ultimately works.

disconnected at both ends) to move it out way of mowing; it certainly looked
and felt like copper to me. 'Spose somebody (power co.) painted steel or

Re: [MBZ] Coolant question (related to my Jeep cooling system work) beja4a3y
Since the last flush, I'm not getting any heavy deposits. Instead I'm
getting lots of fine powered rust. I pulled the heater core hoses and the
bright orange rust that was built up on the heater core and inside the
hoses is completely gone! :-)
Looks like another flush similar to the last one should result in much
cleaner coolant.

From: Brian Toscano brian.tosc...@gmail.com
Ernest,
I have thought the same thing. After I replaced the thermostat/flushed
the
system I poured water in the upper radiator hose (connected to the
radiator) until water came out the thermostat housing. What I'm not
clear
on is how does a heater core get rusty? Are they made of steel or iron
and
not copper? Or does the rust from elsewhere just collect in the heater
core?
I am somewhat concerned if the heater core is rusty and I try to clean
it,
that it may spring a leak!
My current plan is to leave the system as is for now and see how dirty
the
coolant gets over the next 2-3 months. I suspect the hoses may
continue to
shed rust/discolor the coolant. What I don't want to do is spend money
on
something that will not solve the problem. If I'm going to get rust
even
with new hoses, I don't see any reason to replace hoses that are
otherwise
good.

since your observation is that most of the crap is in the heater hoses,
odds are that your cooling system isn't getting fully filled, and the

corrosion there.
replacing the heater core in an XJ isn't fun.
i'd suggest rinsing the heater core thoroughly, but hooking up the
garden hose to the inlets on the heater core and letting is run 'til
it's
clear, then hooking the hose up to the other side. repeat until fully
clear.
then read up on how to get the system completely full ('burped') by
filling at the radiator hose, and see if you still have the same
problem.

Last night I drained the coolant from the drain plug on the radiator.

the water pump what I saw was dirty coolant, but the inside of the

rust-free.
It makes me think the coolant does separate as it cools.
The water pump itself looks fine also. A gasket leak developed on
the top
of the pump after I did the first round of flushing.
What has the most crap buildup are the heater hoses. The supply and
return to the heater core have a rust buildup inside. The lower
radiator
hose has a large spring in it almost the entire length and that spring
holds a ton of crap. It makes me wonder where all this rust comes
from if
the inside of the engine looks fine.
