So thats going for a recore, hopefully should sort out my problem.
Also its worth testing your thermostat.
thanks matey, ive tested the head gasket and was good. so i pressure tested the cooling system and found a leak, fixed that but it does get hot quickly but does cool down in the end. so wound it be good to replace the rad and thermostat anyway thanks chris. ps i think ive seen your car on pistonheads?
