Yes, they should. Sealing the surface on a regular basis prevents water from seeping into the material and causing damage when it freezes. It also replaces some of the oils that evaporate, helping keep the material flexible and less likely to crack.

Where is the radiator cap located in a 2002 Jeep liberty sport?

The radiator cap is actually on the plastic overflow bottle located on the passenger side of the firewall. It is pressurized while it is hot, so, use extreme caution there. Your best bet is simply to let it cool before removing the cap. *On a side note* If you are adding a radiator or cooling system sealant, Do not add it to the overflow jug, instead, remove the upper radiator hose (drain out a bit to ensure there is room in the system for what you are adding) and add your sealant there, re-attach, and then start the engine. I hope this has helped, good luck!!


How do you drain the axle on a grand Cherokee?

Rear and front are done the same way, you have to take the bolts out of the cover then pry the cover loose to break the seal. Make sure you have a wide drain pan ready as it can get pretty messy. With cover off clean off the old sealing material and put a bead of silicone sealant around the flange as there is no gasket, put the cover on then refill with fresh gear lube.


How do you remove the fuse panel on a 2004 Jeep liberty?

I've fixed a lot of fuses. You've just got to pull. The tool they give you might not work, try some needle-nose pliers. Just grab it and pull. Maybe wiggle it a little. Sometimes they're just stubborn.


Why do some basic cable stations come in clear and some come in snowy?

That's a question with many possible answers. Is the cable company receiving and sending out a good signal? If so, I'd start looking at the wiring connections, splitters you're using (if any), they type of cable you're using in the house, the connectors, the amplifiers you're using (if any) and even the tuner in the TV receiver, for starts. Did you seal the entry point of the cable where it comes into the house with a silicon sealant (one that has a vinegar odor when it comes out of the tube)? If so, that could also be your problem as the acetic acid will leach through the wiring cover and corrode your wire internally (usually around 2 years).


Where is the thermostat located on a 1982 Jeep Cherokee?

Follow the upper radiator hose to the motor. The hose will clamp onto a metal dome shaped cover. The thermostat is under that cover. Drain a few gallons of coolant, unbolt the housing, note how the thermostat is in the motor (there is a top and bottom), clean the old gasket off the hosing and motor, put in new thermostat and gasket, bolt the housing on...don't overtighten!!! Fill with coolant and if there is a screw on top of the housing, loosen the screw with engine running until coolant comes out bubble free.....retighten screw.

It's not even worth trying. The pressure in the cylinders during compression will blow away any gasket sealant. The ONLY way is to remove the head, have it resurfaced then put it back together. NO IT WON'T only thing that will help is a new gasket set ( I KNOW DAMET )


What is the control?

Control joints (often confused with expansion joints) are cut into the concrete or asphalt, and are different from expansion joints as shown in the photo. The joints are cut into the structure at regular intervals allow cracking to occur in a controlled fashion. Road control joints can be sealed with hot tar, cold sealant (such as silicone), or compression sealant (such as rubber).
