cheers bud, ill get another guage i think, and see if that does it!

Muddy:
Just check your bottom hose if burns the crap outta your finger and or is similer ti the top one you've got a rad problem, if not then you can try elsewhere, how much water/freeze mix did she take?-could point to airlocks, take the thermostat out and feel you top hose before and after doing this if its hotter afterwards your stat is jammed, you need the correct gauge for you motor otherwise the reading will be completly wrong you must use one the same as what you have fitted now.

Muddy:
They dont all run hot you just need the correct sender in the head mine is a 200 conversion from a disco and it runs fine gauge sits at 1/4 to 1/3 max with fan on and 1/2 ish with it off unless i'm off roading.
