.. and the electric pump only runs with the engine stopped to stop afterboiling, so that will have no impact.

TBH, I'm not overly concerned at having to "delete" it... We all know that a brand new rad and proper maintenance will negate the need for it for a good few years, especially if I decide to fit the lpg.

Besides, I suspect the iron oxide will claim the car within a few years anyway :-X ::)

Next up, swap some tyres around and mot time.

Yes, indeed, and the Omega was built for hotter climates than ours, of course.

One thing that might be worth keeping an eye on is how long the fans run-on after stopping it. Without any coolant circulation, they might run on for a bit long, inn which case it might be best to disable that feature entirely.
