For the diesel, 95C is the optimum running temperature, as I have no viscous fans on mine they run at 95/98C most of the time, it's safe to go to 105C

Over 1000c that's impressive
I have no plan to allow it to go over 98.. i know it's paranoid

Today, after job interview for promotion, cleaned the heatshields ready to go back on once painted. At weekend, tarted the bulkhead paint and prepped the block for getting the heads back on. But rain has definitely stopped play for the last couple of days. Manchester average October rainfall 93mm. We've recorded 38mm between Thursday evening and this morning alone.

The van I got for work has an oil temp reading on display. Can go from 78-102 (diesel) but the gauge, clearly marked in 5 degree increments, always sits at 12 o’clock.
From what I remember there is some sort of pressure sensitive valve under the reservoir
Why wait to spend money on another G clamp, you could have that in tonight just gently tap it in with an nammer....
This is why
The GNK tapped in ok but the HD BP one (I couldn’t resist @ £8.50) doesn’t have the quality collars that hold the bearings in
[/QUOTE]After the vehicle is running and just stopped, the fluid in the pipe system is still held under pressure from the pump and accumulator for a while. After some time the valve block might leak back some of the fluid back into the chamber, if a NR valve is not sealing fully, which makes the level rise. Not really an issue as the fluid gets drawn back into the system the next time it fires up and the level goes back down.="kermit_rr, post: 5263698, member: 150759"]Struggled a bit with the fluid level, thought it was on the money, put the lid on and few mins later it was over flowing

Use more grease to hold them in but take the nipple out so any excess is squeezed out then replace when assembled.

Don't know what happened to my reply to your UJ post but plenty of grease to hold the rollers and take the nipple out so that the excess grease can escape while you press them in a vice and appropriate size socket does it for me.Is that what really happened to him?
Loved Emu as a child. And grotbags lol
just seen it tagged on the end of your post.

Little jobs are adding up. Still don’t own a vice or even a g clamp now I even keep all the tools I haven’t butchered yet and the breakdown kit in the boot ready for a catastrophe
It took me a while to work out I could avoid the rain just bring it indoors and chop it up in here. Ruins the wallpaper though and the dog were not too happy about it either
