Question:

If a piece of aluminum foil was radiated in the microwave oven, would electrons be ejected? Why or why not?

If a piece of aluminum foil was radiated in the microwave oven, would electrons be ejected? Why or why not?

Answer:

Microwaving aluminum foil is not particularly good for the microwave oven since the aluminum will cause the microwave energy to arc and heat the foil up because the lower resistance path will cause more current to be drawn from the microwave generator The heat may be sufficient to melt the aluminum and heat it up enough to vaporize and even ionize some of the aluminum in the vapor phase.
That's pretty funnyAs the other guy said.get a different radiator brandMy recommendation is to get something from koyorad and have your mechanic construct brackets to mount it (non-oem)Might as well at this point.
I also have a 2000 Cherokee Sport and I haven't had the problems you're experiencing with your radiatorBut then my Cherokee doesn't have to suffer the annual salt assault when to snow flies First question I've got is: Have you used the same shop to replace all three radiators? If so, then I would try a different shop if and when your rad fails again Be aware that some of the OEM radiators (not to be confused with a factory radiator) are made a lot less ruggedly than the originalI replaced the factory radiator in my Jeep with one made by Ready-Rad .a subsidiary of Modine radiatorsThe Ready Rad I installed in my Jeep was made in Mexico and definitely made to a price pointWhile the replacement radiator is all brass construction, the brass is of very thin gauge I don't know how you use your Jeep or how it's modified (or not) but the possibility of a weakened frame (the Cherokee uses unibody construction vs the body on frame of a CJ), especially with the road salt used up there, is always a possibilityAnd if you're big into wheeling, well , you just might be putting some torsional stress on the frame and causing the rad to crack Changing out the radiator is one of the easier task on the CherokeeI would suggest, if you need to replace the radiator again, that you do itDrop a little extra coin and get a good heavy duty unit made in the US and save yourself the labor and install it yourselfIt's a simple drop-in job; the hard part is removing all the surrounding stuff .and that's really not that hard.
I bet you used the same brand radiator each timeI have had the same problem with heater coresSolution is to change brands.
