Thanks Nodge68. I bought the Freelander with a blown engine, so I have no experience as to what normal might be on a Freelander. Still..... I am wondering about the thermostat design. As I understand the system, the thermostat is fed normally by the circulating coolant through all the...

I decided to run it as it was and things were seeming OK until one of the heater core coolant hoses sprung a leak. I repaired the leak, etc and decided to drive it myself with my Mac Mentor scan tool hooked up. I monitored the temperature on my 30 mile commute and can confirm the running...

I agree the temperature seems high, but the temperature gauge holds rock steady at normal. I am getting the readings from engine coolant temperature, which I assume is the on the top of the block under the intake manifolds. The noises are clunking, like boiling water starting to boil in a...

Thanks for all the welcome messages. I will work on getting some pictures. oldyankee
