Hi Russ, Yes i did exactly that and it all works fine now, :) :) :) :) :) :) :) Im currenty looking at another P38 with a gear box problem? sometimes it will engage gear and sometimes it wont. any ideas?

hHi There, yes its really easy to check. The thermostat is located on the bottom hose on the radiator. Its connected to the rest of the hoses using push clips. Just remove it and drop it in a bowl of boiling water and see if it opens. To be honest i would be very suprised if this was the problem!
