Lost my heater and the temp rose rather rapidly. Some may already know but this truck had heater/temp problems before. Its had a head skim and new gasket but still played up, but with a good long bleed it was OK again....... Til today LOL

Blocked solid. I now have heaters, and a cooler running temp than i had before. So fingers crossed! Something worth checking everyone incase youres is clogging!

Or you give up with the rusty body landys and swap them for the rusty chassis ones... then you wonder how you have ended up in a diesel powered 4wd garden shed!!
