Spreading Joy & Harmony
I know i really shouldn't complain, especially with spring on the way..

But i will..

2.5N/A engine runs very well, only issue is water temp sits at 1/8 on the clockmost of time...even after a 100 mile run..this means that the heater output is very cold. All the pipework is lukewarm, the thermostat is opening, viscous fan has been removed and i'm not using the electric one.

Now I have tried to blank of a radiator before...with disasterous consequences!! I would like to avoid this option!

Any ideas why its not getting up to at least 1/4 or little bit more?

Tempted to leave it as is through summer but the winters are a bugger here and i'd like to avoid frostbite in my feet!
 
Highest temp stat i can see at paddocks is 82 degrees...anyone know where else to look?

i know you had probs with this idea before,but try blocking the rad of a bit at a time,see if you can get it warmer bit by bit.
 
change yer 'stat, old one could be weak/faulty and opening too early. cheap enough to try it anyway
