sounds like you had a great time, just what old motors are for!

is the rad getting uniformly hot over its entire surface?

Hi

The rad is working as it should, but I don't think it is to it's full capacity, it has alot of scale in the top bit, so the fins mustn't be great!

To add to this, I have been told of a very good guy locally, who does alot of radiators, and loved doing old stuff, so I will be calling on him, when I get the number of a friend, he is very cheap aparently, cheaper than we thought he would charge anyway.

Cheers

Dave

Hi

Just taken the Ford of charfe, being on from about 3ish, will stick it on again, one night, started up and went for a run, but didn't try restarting after stoping, I think this is where the problem lies!

Cheers

Dave
