Could running the air condition cause the jeep to overheat?
Well if your jeep is overheating running the air conditioner can kick on the fan that cools the engine; (you want to check this) However, if the fan does not kick on then yes it can over heat the engine. If your engine is over heating, then the best thing to do is pull over and let it cool down; (you can destroy the whole engine for some that relatively costs little to fix) However, you can reduce the heat in the engine by turning the heat on your a/c control all the way hot and all the way high which can buy you some more time to get your car to a safe place to pull over or even home. WATCH YOUR TEMPERATURE GAGE. Hope this helps.

What does the cooling system do within an engine?
It cycles coolant through the engine. Heat from the engine is transferred to the coolant through a heat exchange. The heated coolant then cycles through the system to the radiator, where heat from the coolant undergoes another heat exchange, transferring heat from the coolant to the air which passes through the radiator. Heat will also transfer from the motor to the air forced over the motor by the engine fan.

How can you stop the car from overheating?
cars use a mixture of water and antifreeze or ethylene glycol to help cool your cars engine this mixture is pumped though your cars engine from the radiator where it is cooled by the passing of wind though the "slats" into the engine by what is called a water pump the cooled liquid then cools the engine an engine can over heat many different the first and easiest way is that there is not enough of this mixture in the radiator the next way an engine can over heat if the fan behind the radiator (if electric) does not turn on while the engine is hot and not moving (at a stop light persay) the next way an engine can over heat is is the water pump is "broken" and not pumping this mixture into the engine there are still many more ways an engine can over heat i suggest you consult your local mechanic for more help
