| First which lights came on? From the left. Then a few causes, hope it's not the first Cracked head ??? thermostat stuffed, Auto gearbox overheating which would bring up main radiator heat through the cooling lines Hope you get this sorted mate | |

| Having the front and rear heaters on full blast at the critical point will help cool things. I used to have a cheap multimeter with temperature function...the probe wire was stuffed into the side of the temp switch on the head and silconed over..... OK..the reading was rough as not immersed in coolant ...but it showed relative changes while driving....when it got to a certain figure I'd hit the fans... Clive will probably remember the townace modification of the temp guage....also I think John replaced his townace guage with something more accurate... | |

| Yes the Mason Alarm (have a look on www.townace.com for it)
John fitted an aftermarket guage that showed the temp not just a point somewhere between c and H or if you have a digital one like me a little green square near the middle of the display. | |
