I just replaced the water pump and radiator (along with hoses) in my '98 4.0. The temp gauge shows it straight up at 215 and it seems to stay there. I have noticed smell of antifreeze and read in another post that this means that the water pump is not functioning as it should due to a loose belt. I have the belt fairly tight, no squeals or sounds. Just wondering if I am missing something here. My lower hose does not have the coiled wire, not sure what that would effect.
