why is this
Henry Webster:
Its sometimes difficult to spot problems with the Rad - I had overheating issues when towing last year and with a cursory investigation of the rad it looked not too bad, but changed it anyway and it solved the problem.
muddyweb:
Radiator cores can 'fuzz up' just like a kettle with the right conditions, and this will reduce the efficiency.... so it is a possibility
Dave:
Right then the light i spoke about was the oil pressure light, he also said the revs dropped to almost stall but when it had cooled down it was fine again. Would the rad make it do that :?:
Wanderer:
If it's overheating badly then the oil may be losing it's properties and not keeping the pressure up. Does he do regular oil changes?
Normally when overheating I get the red temp warning light flashing and my wallet then says stop and let it cool or do something about it.
Usually it's get the mud out of the radiator fins on the way back from a playday.

Range Rover Blues:
Overheating, low oil pressure. that sound nasty. Does it have the oil cooler in the rad like a 3.9?
