Title: orunning hot/thermstat/coolant/fan switch
Post by: bogit on 07 June 2007, 22:22:32

so
ok , im strange/mad, but at work around 3 in the morning i was bored ,so decided to investigate my cooling issues a little.
took ages to reach 95 on the guage,( fan still linked out,( on slow speed at the mo)
quickly got to 97 and stayed there (all at idle)
opened the expansion tank cap.slightly pressurised,
but water inside was still cool to the touch.

hmmmmmm.

so thoughts please.

is my stat stuck shut ?
or blockage in rad / water pump stuffed ?
