temp gauge has the wrong sender in it, i tried 3 different ones and gave up in the end, so i now have a proper gauge, its runs at less than 80 degrees, so happy days.

Thats the route Ive gone. Was worried my head gasket was away,,but with good compression ive ruled it out.
Has new stat, new radiator, new header tank, and new sender ( which Ive since found out is meant for the valencia engine).
So waiting for my gauge to arrive, and hopefully I can put its sender into the original position
