OK, just had a look at the oil filler cap, and looks ok, normal state, just oil (needs changing) and as far as i can tell there is no blowing from the back of the block.

may whip out the thermostat tomorrow and see what happens then?

OK, i have located the heater matrix drain hoses as explained by Frank, and found them to be completely solid with mud right upto the heater matrix  :-k so cleared them out. Also removed the thermostat as it looks a bit iffy, the center rubber is all cracked.

Left it running for a fair old while, got up to temp, and the heater actually cleared the windscreen rather than steamed it up. Will see how it is on a run out tomorrow.

Cheers for now.

BigA:
Just a quick update. Been out for about 6 hours today, and no steam or heat problems. Looks like the steam from the heater was as Frank suggested and due to the blocked drain hoses from the heater matrix.

Fingers crossed all sorted now.

Cheers

Andy
