Cooling system was flushed.
Cant see any swirl effect, but the top of the stat housing is spitting water out with the hose off.

Ive just put a new fan switch in to the stat housing, as I thought this could be problem, but its not made any difference.

I have two header tanks (original 90 spec, and alloy ), and two header caps ( waxstat & motorcraft ), but still very hot.

New gauge is touching 120deg at idle, with the fans still not kicking in.

Ive got the car off, ignition on fans bridged & heaters on to try to cool it down.

Im at the end now, Out of money till pay day, and patience are gone with it.
