Hi,
Series 3, 1975, 2.25L petrol engine, over heating.
She overheated earlier in the year, leading to a thermostat being fitted ( she didn't already have one) the radiator being replaced and the head gasket/ exhaust valves being replaced. She's been running fine since, done about 500 miles ( she's not my daily drive). Suddenly today she's overheating again. Did a 40min trip @ 60 on the motorway, stopped to meet friends for a few hours. On the way back within 15 mins of starting the temp needle is right up just touching 'H'. I've topped up the water in the expansion tank, and checked the fan is working. What else can I do?
