    • Coolant slightly low so topped up
    • Checked rad level and topped up
    • Water running round rad (can see through rad cap) when warm
    • Fan working



    But still overheating !!!!!!!!

    Drained and flushed. New gold & platinum thermostat, lovely new coolant...let's see if that makes her happier.

    Ive known owners run flexible pipes around the headstock and directed onto the head on Trumpets to aid cooling. flexible washing machine ones are the type under the tank you might just see the round holes at the front but that's all.
