The cooling system? :)

Sorry, obligatory smart-ass answer.

Check your heater core lines. They can get pinholes
or cracks and spray on the valve cover then run back.

I'm serious. WTF? It's a conspiracy.

The jeep is possessed.

Bill, the manifold bolts holes are exposed to the water jacket?

I never put sealant on mine when I changed out the MPI kit and had no
problems.


Thanks,

Bill

I'll check them but, If that was the case wouldn't I see it more as the jeep
warms up and gets more water pressure?
