Under bonnet air temps

[sideshow]

thermostat is ok
my new rad should be here in afew days so i will know if that wasd the prob

What about restriction in the exhaust? (colapsing cat or muffler)
Can cause over heating & loss of power if really blocked.
Not sure what you've checked or tried so just throwing some ideas around.

after alot of monwy and time i finally sorted it out i think

new 3 core rad was 550 very heavy unit

due to rad being hticker my old themro could not be fitted

so i fitted an 11 in and 10 in fans more money

today is a hot day and with car stationary and bonnet shut

the temps on scanner says 97 when fans on and 95 when fans off

i let it run for 20 minutes and still temps stay around 95

so i think its ok for now

the new radiator has 40 to 50 % more water capacity

and with 2 small thermos i spread the cooling

so it all seams ok for now

mind u after the engine had not been run for 5 days it took few seconds for oil to get up and was bit noisy hehe

luckily i get these engines pretty cheap

hey has anyine had a scanner on their 1uz im wondering if tyhe temps its showing me are accurate or normal for one of these

i have a snap on scanner if anyone wants to get some reading

My 1uz sat stationary for 6 weeks, didn't make any wierd sounds when starting.
Oil pressure is usually up before the motor even starts.
