Some possibilities: Could your gage be off-calibration, and reading high? You might check that by undoing the sensor and dropping it in a pan of hot water, using a good thermometer in the pan for a r

Just put it in boiling water. At sea level pressure you know you'll be at 212 (at 1000 feet it's 210, at 2000 ft it's 208). Careful to make sure the water is thoroughly boiling, and not to touch the

Also , I've seen several radiators with the tops all bowed out from using a cap that had a pressure rating that was too high ! Mark Hanna AN5L/13731

No direct effect, as you say.... but there is the possibility (remote, in this case), that if he's operating close to boiling on his gage temp, that he's experiencing excessive localized boiling at h

Hi Michael This sounds like a thermostat that is either not there (been taken out!) or a thermostat that is stuck open. I would check the above before I suspect the gauge, if it worked fine before, t

Best bet, Thermostat stuck open. The heating after parking is heat sok from the engine to the coolant. Very typical, very normal. On the other hand the temp might just be fine and the gauge f&%$ed up

There was some discussion while back in which I took some flack from the list for driving around without a thermostat. It was 100 degrees at the time, and the prior owner of the '74 Midget had taken

Or use a blanking sleeve and blank the bypass. Daniel1312 << The A-series engines (different than the 1500) apparently develop some severe hotspots at low revs, when there is no thermostat. >>
