i need to put some anti-freeze in there before it gets a nice long run, other than that runs well  :)
Might be worth running a proper flush through the cooling system - didn't look particularly clean in there.

Spoke to Graham today, he ran the Forte stuff though his 3 times longer than the book said. Tempted to give that a try...

Forte very good - and I think he said place in Bicester sold it. Trouble is, its expensive. The Holts stuff is a fiver from Halfords, but probably false economy...

Tunnie, as you probably suspected, I have to agree entirely with LB66 on this one.  I know the Forte is expensive, but I have tried all sorts in the tractor, but do rate the forte....   ....though the instructions say take water pump out after and flush. In your case, I would just flush it daily for a few days after having the forte in....
