Well I hate to admit this but I was stumped on my overheating problem ...
Replaced everything (EVERYTHING) :mad: to do with the cooling .. even new 4 core radiator.
I also checked the exhaust valve heat riser valve to see it was moving open/closed on warm up.
Thought I would let you know you can't see the flap inside the valve moving .... only the lever.
Yep Check for stuck/frozen shut exhaust valve heat riser valve ... shaft was stuck and only lever was moving ....
Just something that could happen to you .. I hope it doesn't... was a pain drilling out the bolts etc ...
Still it has fixed my problem smile.gif
