So, after having cooling issues:
http://www.projectpuma.com/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=23092
I've changed the thermostat (new from Ford) but still doesn't seem to be any change....
- Dash reads 100degs but pipe from thermostat to radiator luke warm at thermostat end, cold at radiator end
- Right end top thermostat hose cold, other end by block hot
- Radiator cold each end
- Feed and return pipes to heater matrix hot (both sides of HCV)
- Heater in car cold
Radiator fan Turns on, on low speed.
Cap left off expansion tank
Pipes squeezed
Now I'm suspecting the water pump is shot and not pumping coolant round the system.....?
Thoughts please........
