dont I know it. A faulty thermostat cost me a viscous fan, a water pump and datatek's fan bypass. ( Its Awsome) just to find out Ebay's thermostat was crap. but after enough lost skin and swearing, my brain worked it out.

flea bay.

as far as AC is concerned I need to find the correct belt tensioner as it doesn't exist. hence why I'm leaving that until the end....... Although my wife now wants the Wee Beastie as her day to day i may have to buy another. cant put my finger on it( generally because I might lose it) but it's...

thank you.

as I got my "wee beastie" with 155,000 on the clock. I'm sure I've not sorted all issues yet. I think the front rad (air con?) is blocked and stopping full air flow. add to that that whilst wiring your mod I spotted that I need to put a new gearbox oil rad on so whole cooling system needs some...

Any way does anyone know how to get this mod up and running. just installed new thermostat , waterpump and viscous fan. fan started...
