Get the air out and consider a continuous venting configuration. (the TSB recommendation, radiator top vent back to swirl tank, was not a very good option). And of course a new, PROPER thermosatat. As for the gauge indication, was the new sender compatible with the gauge. Is the location on the engine front the exiting coolant (hottest) or the inlet (cooler). Reading 230F all the time could be the sender failed or you have a ground in the sensing wire (low resistance higher gauge reading) Joe -----Original Message----- From: DeTomaso [mailto:detomaso-bounces@server.detomasolist.com] On Behalf Of Owen Cooke Sent: Tuesday, July 05, 2016 10:13 AM To: detomaso@server.detomasolist.com Subject: Re: [DeTomaso] DeTomaso Digest, Vol 144, Issue 27 ..I only had this slight boiling over in the swirl tank once also i fitted a new temp sender on the engine front and it read about 160 degrees until now its reading 230 degress all the time with only veery small vasriation in reading even when engine is cold any quick ideas on why it would suddenly go wrong ? _______________________________________________ Detomaso Email List is not managed by POCA Posted emails must not exceed 1.5 Megabytes DeTomaso mailing list DeTomaso@server.detomasolist.com http://server.detomasolist.com/mailman/listinfo/detomaso To manage your subscription (change email address, unsubscribe, etc.) use the links above.
