[QUOTE="EddieS'04, post: 979774, member: 61136"] I suspect a pin hole leak, maybe. This leak is causing the preasure relief. So the cap is not having to relieving to the bottle. Therefore you say you are having to add fluid. I would look around the lower t-stat housing. Common leak point on the 4.0L motors. Also look at the radiator real close. For signs of seepage. you may have to take the fan shroud loose. To get a good look. Not always but, alluminum radiators. Tend to develop leaks at the bottom. Or the seals on the tanks. Odd enough my neighbors trac. Had a hair line crack on the radiator nipple. Where the top hose went. [/QUOTE]
