ENGINE COOLANT THERMOSTAT - 3.7L/4.7L DESCRIPTION
CAUTION: Do not operate the engine without a ther- mostat, except for servicing or testing.
A pellet-type thermostat controls the operating temperature of the engine by controlling the amount of coolant flow to the radiator. On all engines the thermostat is closed below 195°F (90°C). Above this temperature, coolant is allowed to flow to the radia- tor. This provides quick engine warm up and overall temperature control. On the 3.7L4.7L engine the thermostat is designed to block the flow of the cool- ant bypass journal by 50% instead of completely blocking the flow. This design controls coolant tem- perature more accurately (Fig. 25).
The same thermostat is used for winter and sum- mer seasons. An engine should not be operated with- out a thermostat, except for servicing or testing. Operating without a thermostat causes other prob- lems. These are: longer engine warmup time, unreli- able warmup exhaust

CAUTION: Do not operate an engine without a ther- mostat, except for servicing or testing. An engine with the thermostat removed will operate in the radiator bypass mode, causing an overheat condi- tion.
The thermostat of the 5.9L diesel engine is located in the front of the cylinder head, underneath the thermostat housing (Fig. 27).
The same thermostat is used for winter and sum- mer seasons. An engine should not be operated with- out a thermostat, except for servicing or testing. Operating without a thermostat will cause overheat- ing.

This system capacity will not effect warm up or cold weather operating characteristics if the thermo- stat is operating properly. This is because coolant will be held in the engine until it reaches the ther- mostat “set” temperature.
Diesel engines, due to their inherent efficiency are slower to warm up than gasoline powered engines, and will operate at lower temperatures when the vehicle is unloaded. Because of this, lower tempera- ture gauge readings for diesel versus gasoline engines may, at times be normal.
Typically, complaints of low engine coolant temper- ature are observed as low heater output when com- bined with cool or cold outside temperatures.
To help promote faster engine warm-up, the elec- tric engine block heater must be used with cool or cold outside temperatures. This will help keep the engine coolant warm when the vehicle is parked. Use the block heater if the outside temperature is below 4°C (40°F). Do not use the block heater if the outside temperature is above 4°C (40°F).
A “Cold Weather Cover” is available from the parts department through the Mopar Accessories product line. This accessory cover is designed to block airflow entering the radiator and engine compartment to promote faster engine warm-up. It attaches to the front of the vehicle at the grill opening. The cover is to be used with cool or cold temperatures only. If used with high outside temperatures, serious engine damage could result. Refer to the litera- ture supplied with the cover for additional informa- tion.
(1) To determine if the thermostat is defective, it must be removed from the vehicle (Refer to 7 - COOLING/ENGINE/ENGINE COOLANT THERMO- STAT - REMOVAL).
(2) After the thermostat has been removed, exam- ine the thermostat and inside of thermostat housing for contaminants. If contaminants are found, the thermostat may already be in a “stuck open” position. Flush the cooling system before replacing thermostat (Refer to 7 - COOLING - STANDARD PROCE- DURE).
(3) Place the thermostat into a container filled
the valve is still moving when the water temperature reaches 97°C (207°F), it is opening too late. Replace thermostat. If the valve refuses to move at any time, replace thermostat.

FAN DRIVE VISCOUS CLUTCH DESCRIPTION
The thermal viscous fan drive (Fig. 29) is a sili- cone-fluid- filled coupling used to connect the fan blades to the water pump shaft. The coupling allows the fan to be driven in a normal manner. This is done at low engine speeds while limiting the top speed of the fan to a predetermined maximum level at higher engine speeds.
OPERATION
A thermostatic bimetallic spring coil is located on the front face of the viscous fan drive unit (a typical viscous unit is shown in (Fig. 30). This spring coil reacts to the temperature of the radiator discharge air. It engages the viscous fan drive for higher fan speed if the air temperature from the radiator rises above a certain point. Until additional engine cooling is necessary, the fan will remain at a reduced rpm regardless of engine speed.
Only when sufficient heat is present, will the vis- cous fan drive engage. This is when the air flowing through the radiator core causes a reaction to the bimetallic coil. It then increases fan speed to provide the necessary additional engine cooling.
Fig.29ViscousFan
1 - WATER PUMP BYPASS HOSE 2 - FAN BLADE ASSEMBLY 3 - VISCOUS FAN DRIVE 4 - WATER PUMP AND PULLEY
Once the engine has cooled, the radiator discharge temperature will drop. The bimetallic coil again reacts and the fan speed is reduced to the previous disengaged speed.

† Cool silicone fluid within the fan drive unit is
being redistributed back to its normal disengaged
(warm) position. This can occur during the first 15
seconds to one minute after engine start-up on a cold

LEAKS
Viscous fan drive operation is not affected by small oil stains near the drive bearing. If leakage appears excessive, replace the fan drive unit.
VISCOUS DRIVE
If the fan assembly free-wheels without drag (the fan blades will revolve more than five turns when spun by hand), replace the fan drive. This spin test must be performed when the engine is cool.
For the following test, the cooling system must be in good condition. It also will ensure against exces- sively high coolant temperature.
WARNING: BE SURE THAT THERE IS ADEQUATE FAN BLADE CLEARANCE BEFORE DRILLING.
(1) Drill a 3.18-mm (1/8-in) diameter hole in the
top center of the fan shroud.
(2) Obtain a dial thermometer with an 8 inch stem (or equivalent). It should have a range of -18°-to- 105°C (0°-to-220° F). Insert thermometer through the hole in the shroud. Be sure that there is adequate clearance from the fan blades.
(3) Connect a tachometer and an engine ignition timing light. The timing light is to be used as a strobe light. This step cannot be used on the diesel engine.
(4) Block the air flow through the radiator. Secure a sheet of plastic in front of the radiator. Use tape at the top to secure the plastic and be sure that the air flow is blocked.
(5) Be sure that the air conditioner (if equipped) is
turned off.
WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN THE ENGINE IS OPERATING. DO NOT STAND IN A DIRECT LINE WITH THE FAN. DO NOT PUT YOUR HANDS NEAR THE PULLEYS, BELTS OR FAN. DO NOT WEAR LOOSE CLOTHING.
(6) Start the engine and operate at 2400 rpm. Within ten minutes the air temperature (indicated on the dial thermometer) should be up to 88° C (190° F). Fan drive engagement should start to occur at/be- tween:† 3.7L Automatic — 93° C - 99°C (200° F - 210° F)

If not, replace the defective viscous fan drive unit.
CAUTION: Some engines equipped with serpentine drive belts have reverse rotating fans and viscous fan drives. They are marked with the word REVERSE to designate their usage. Installation of the wrong fan or viscous fan drive can result in engine overheating.
If
the viscous fan drive is replaced CAUTION: because of mechanical damage, the cooling fan blades should also be inspected. Inspect for fatigue cracks, loose blades, or loose rivets that could have resulted from excessive vibration. Replace fan blade assembly if any of these conditions are found. Also inspect water pump bearing and shaft assembly for any related damage due to a viscous fan drive malfunction.
FAN DRIVE VISCOUS CLUTCH - 5.9L DIESEL DESCRIPTION
The electronically controlled thermal viscous fan drive (Fig. 31) is attached to the fan drive pulley mounted to the engine. The coupling allows the fan to be driven in a normal manner. The fan speed is controlled by the electronic control module.
OPERATION
The Engine Control Module (ECM) controls the level of engagment of the electronically controlled viscous fan clutch by monitoring coolant tempera- ture, intake manifold temperature, and air condition- ing status. Based on cooling requirements, the ECM sends a signal to the viscous fan clutch to increase or decrease the fan speed.

RADIATOR PRESSURE CAP DESCRIPTION
All cooling systems are equipped with a pressure cap (Fig. 37). For 5.9L engines, the pressure cap is located on top of the radiator outlet tank. For the 3.7L/4.7L engines, the pressure cap is located on top of the coolant degas container. The cap releases pres- sure at some point within a range of 97-to-124 kPa (14-to-18 psi). The pressure relief point (in pounds) is engraved on top of the cap
The cooling system will operate at pressures slightly above atmospheric pressure. This results in a higher coolant boiling point allowing increased radi- ator cooling capacity. The cap contains a spring-
DR RADIATOR PRESSURE CAP (Continued)
loaded pressure relief valve. This valve opens when system pressure reaches the release range of 97-to- 124 kPa (14-to-18 psi).
A rubber gasket seals the radiator filler neck. This is done to maintain vacuum during coolant cool-down and to prevent leakage when system is under pres- sure.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING—RADIATOR CAP-TO-FILLER NECK SEAL
The pressure cap upper gasket (seal) pressure
relief can be tested by removing overflow hose from
the radiator filler neck tube. Attach the hose of the
pressure tester tool 7700 (or equivalent) to the tube.
It will be necessary to disconnect hose from its
adapter for the filler neck. Pump air into radiator.
The pressure cap upper gasket should relieve at 69
to 124kPa (10 to 18 psi) and hold pressure at a min-
imum of 55 kPa (8 psi).
WARNING: THE WARNING WORDS —DO NOT OPEN HOT— ON RADIATOR PRESSURE CAP, ARE A SAFETY PRECAUTION. WHEN HOT, PRESSURE BUILDS UP IN COOLING SYSTEM. TO PREVENT SCALDING OR INJURY, RADIATOR CAP SHOULD NOT BE REMOVED WHILE SYSTEM IS HOT AND/OR UNDER PRESSURE.
Do not remove the radiator cap at any time except
for the following purposes:
(1) Check and adjust antifreeze freeze point. (2) Refill the system with new antifreeze. (3) Conducting service procedures. (4) Checking for vacuum leaks.
Fig.37RadiatorPressureCap-Typical
1 - FILLER NECK SEAL 2 - VACUUM VENT VALVE 3 - PRESSURE RATING 4 - PRESSURE VALVE
OPERATION
A vent valve in the center of the cap will remain shut as long as the cooling system is pressurized. As the coolant cools, it contracts and creates a vacuum in the cooling system. This causes the vacuum valve to open and coolant in the reserve/overflow container to be drawn through the recovery hose connecting the filler neck and reserve/overflow container. If the vacuum valve is stuck shut, or the recovery hose is kinked, radiator hoses will collapse on cool down.
For the 3.7L/4.7L engine, the vacuum valve will open and relieve the vacuum pressure in the cooling system.
WARNING: IF VEHICLE HAS BEEN RUN RECENTLY, WAIT AT LEAST 15 MINUTES BEFORE REMOVING RADIATOR CAP. WITH A RAG, SQUEEZE RADIATOR UPPER HOSE TO CHECK IF SYSTEM IS UNDER PRESSURE. PLACE A RAG OVER CAP AND WITH- OUT PUSHING CAP DOWN, ROTATE IT COUNTER- CLOCKWISE TO FIRST STOP. ALLOW FLUID TO ESCAPE THROUGH THE COOLANT RESERVE/ OVERFLOW HOSE INTO RESERVE/OVERFLOW TANK. SQUEEZE RADIATOR UPPER HOSE TO DETERMINE WHEN BEEN RELEASED. WHEN COOLANT AND STEAM STOP BEING PUSHED INTO TANK AND SYSTEM PRES- SURE DROPS, REMOVE RADIATOR CAP COM- PLETELY.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - RADIATOR CAP
Remove the cap from the radiator. Be sure that the sealing surfaces are clean. Moisten the rubber gasket with water and install the cap on the pressure tester 7700 or an equivalent (Fig. 38).
Operate the tester pump to bring the pressure to 104 kPa (15 psi) on the gauge. If the pressure cap fails to hold pressure of at least 97 kPa (14 psi) replace the cap. Refer to the following CAUTION.

WATER PUMP - 5.9L DESCRIPTION
The water pump is located on the engine front cover, and has an integral pulley attached (Fig. 40). The water pump impeller is pressed onto the rear of a shaft that rotates in a bearing pressed into the water pump body. The body has a small hole for ven- tilation. The water pump seals are lubricated by antifreeze in the coolant mixture. Additional lubrica- tion is not necessary.
OPERATION
A centrifugal water pump circulates
coolant through the water jackets, passages, intake manifold, radiator core, cooling system hoses and heater core, this coolant absorbs the heat generated when the engine is running. The pump is driven by the engine crankshaft via a drive belt.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING—WATER PUMP
A quick test to determine if pump is working is to check if heater warms properly. A defective water pump will not be able to circulate heated coolant through the long heater hose to the heater core.
Fig.38PressureTestingRadiatorCap-Typical
1 - PRESSURE CAP 2 - TYPICAL COOLING SYSTEM PRESSURE TESTER
The pressure cap may test properly while posi- tioned on tool 7700 (or equivalent). It may not hold pressure or vacuum when installed on the radiator. If so, inspect the radiator filler neck and radiator cap’s top gasket for damage. Also inspect for dirt or distor- tion that may prevent the cap from sealing properly.
CAUTION: Radiator pressure testing tools are very sensitive to small air leaks which will not cause cooling system problems. A pressure cap that does not have a history of coolant loss should not be replaced just because it leaks slowly when tested with this tool. Add water to tool. Turn tool upside down and recheck pressure cap to confirm that cap needs replacement.
CLEANING
Use only a mild soap and water to clean the radi- ator cap. Using any type of solvent may cause dam- age to the seal in the radiator cap.
INSPECTION
Hold cap at eye level, right side up. The vent valve (Fig. 39) at bottom of cap should closed. A slight downward pull on the vent valve should open it. If the rubber gasket has swollen and prevents vent valve from opening, replace cap.
Hold cap at eye level, upside down. If any light can be seen between vent valve and rubber gasket, replace cap. A replacement cap must be the type

WATER PUMP - 3.7L/4.7L
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION—WATER PUMP
A centrifugal water pump circulates
coolant through the water jackets, passages, intake manifold, radiator core, cooling system hoses and heater core. The pump is driven from the engine crankshaft by a single serpentine drive belt.
The water pump impeller is pressed onto the rear of a shaft that rotates in bearings pressed into the housing. The housing has two small holes to allow seepage to escape. The water pump seals are lubri- cated by the antifreeze in the coolant mixture. No additional lubrication is necessary.
Both heater hoses are connected to fittings on the timing chain front cover. The water pump is also mounted directly to the timing chain cover and is equipped with a non serviceable integral pulley (Fig. 44).
DESCRIPTION—WATER PUMP BYPASS
The 3.7L and 4.7L engine uses an internal water/ coolant bypass system. The design uses galleries in the timing chain cover to circulate coolant during engine warm-up preventing the coolant from flowing through the radiator. The thermostat uses a stub shaft located at the rear of the thermostat (Fig. 45) to control flow through the bypass gallery.

radiator core, cooling system hoses and heater core, this coolant absorbs the heat generated when the engine is running. The pump is driven by the engine crankshaft via a drive belt.
OPERATION—WATER PUMP BYPASS
When the thermostat is in the closed position the bypass gallery is not obstructed allowing 100% flow. When the thermostat is in the open position the stub shaft enters the bypass gallery obstructing bypass coolant flow by 50%. This design allows the coolant to reach operating temperature quickly when cold, while adding extra cooling during normal tempera- ture operation.
