Hi Keith

Thank you I did all that stuff and it all seems fine now, took it around the inclines and no problems, I can stop the fan with newspaper tho.

This part is only about 18months old and from memory was quite expensive, can't remember if it was Britpart or not.

Wammers thanks, that all seems ok, I did renew the O ring on that bypass pipe during the renovation.

As I mentioned it's been fine, I guess I'll have to replace that VC, I did take the high incline route straight away last night maybe that was the problem......?

So had a perfect journey home with not a trace of getting warm including long inclines on the A38, no idea what caused the problem, I loosened the expansion tank cap to top up on a steep incline (rad lowest) when the engine was warm, I wonder if this caused an air lock?

Thanks very much for all the advice everyone
