Hi all,
Can anyone help me with what I feel may be a self inflicted problem:scratching_chin:.
I have just serviced my 1999 Freelander 1. I have drained and flushe the coolant and refilled working to the Haynes manual. Started the engine and ran to get up to temperature but instead of the gauge settling in its usual position, the temprature gauge kept going until it was over halfway up the dial. The coolant level was holding steady and was circulating ok but I noticed the fans were not kicking in.
I thought I may have air locked the system so re-bled it taking even more care just to be certain. Started it up, same problems. Everything was running ok prior to me bleeding the coolant.
Anybody give me any ideas as to what I have done, I feel a bit of a tit ending up with this result
Cheers
