The ute seems to run a little to hot, cold weather it sits at a 1/4, but as soon as your in traffic, it sits at half way and above (to the next little line) where the thermo cuts in, but takes no more then 20 seconds for it to get that hot, its very quick.
Yesterday in the hot weather it sat just under half on the highway, and would get hotter if air-con was on.
It doesnt go past that little line above half way, so its not exactly over-heating, but Im not comfortable with it running that hot all the time.
So far the following has been replaced:
Radiator hoses, heater tap and core.
Genuine Coolant
New radiator (got worse, but old radiator was cracked)
Next on the list is Thermostat,
Confirm thermo cuts in at appropriate times (can someone tell me when its suppose to cut in)
Water Pump
A better radiator.
Any ideas, help?
