I always watch the temperature gauge carefully as I've never liked it being as high as it is.

Could just be a faulty gauge and the rattling could be something totally unconnected.

It has taken a bashing this weekend with Strata, Pheasant Steps and The Bastard Lane
 
Yes but no steam or water loss

And I pulled it up quickly and let it cool down.

could just be a dodgy radiator might want a flush micks is the same tends to get very hot on motorway but in town its fine hopefully you engine will be fine
 
Time for a proper gauge and sender, I thought mine ran hot but it was ok, then it went off the scale..... It needed a rad, recore rad and new gauge and it doesn't move off 90 ever

sniggers :D

I know ya are :cool:

just waiting for the fallout following the weekends escapades :eek:

so far we have-
a 90 running hot,
a disco with possible terminal body mounts (or so he thinks),
a dave chucking black smoke out.

and collateral works, due to a disco with terminal body mounts, a 2a that may require an mot and possibly a 200 conversion with an unknown engine that "came with it", a calibra that needs an mot, and the endurance of john in the workshop to assist :eek:
