Ok so I do realise my answer is probably here somewhere...but I've spent most of the arvo looking and can't find it so here goes...
Owned my 92 vp for 6 years now and it's never gone above half on my temp gauge. I managed to bust the plastic nipple thingy between the water pump and thermostat and that's when the trouble started...
New parts:
Plastic nipple thingy (no idea what it actually is haha)
Radiator
Thermostat
Both coolant temp sensors
Gaskets for thermostat and water pump
Hoses are less than 12months old so is water pump(water pump was 2ndhand though)
And new coolant (obviously)
Installed and filled up and now my thermofan won't kick in till 3/4.
Checked wiring/relays/fuses/ecu all ok.
Had it down to an auto electrician and he told me everything is working fine. Then he tried telling me that's normal for my car...yeah right. If it's normal then why is it the first time in 6 years it's done it?
P.s. Yes I did bleed the air out too
So I'm hoping one of you car god people has an answer for me...
