Will take a look @ interior now.
Awh well, least the rocker cover gasket is an easy job, the overheating is gonna be the arse ache.

So no more leaks?
Iirc the cooling systems been bled and bled again?
Have used antifreeze in the water too, that may help a little?
Is the fan kicking in yet?

nope, all leak free now
its still hot though,
yup been bled numerous times. will try some antifreeze i did mention that to ben
fan kicks in fine now at 3/4s which is the only thing that seems to be stopping the needle from going right to the top.
when the cars been stationary, on the ramps and on my drive, its taken nearly half an hour to get up to about halfway, but now its being used, within 2 minuites its on halfway.
i think i might buy a new thermostat as ive got one off alexs old car and see if it makes it any better
