Hmmmm, here's some funky extra info guys....
Had to drop my boys back to their Mum's place tonight - Oh, DelcoWiz - tried your procedure above, didn't really make any difference.... On the way home along the M4 though (which I'm on for 25 minutes or so) I found that turning the heater on full hot, it kept the engine temp manageable.... (baked the bollocks off me, but the gauge only climbed to just over halfway, instead of 3/4 or higher)
Does that provide any additional clues?? My logic tells me that if such a small "radiator" (ie - the heater core) is helping to cool the engine to THAT extent, then maybe I SHOULD be suspecting the radiator??? (or am I on the wrong track altogether??)
Thanks again for the help fellas. :thumbsup:
