Cheers glend. I’ve been reading through a bunch of your posts- which have helped already.
I think the thermostat is ok, as I’ve been on a few drives now and the temp comes up much faster than before the swap.
I didn’t undo the bleed screw when I drained, but I did drop the bottom hose at the radiator and opened the reservoir lid.
When I flushed it (with thermostat in place- no other way that I can see), could coolant have been flowing through the other tubes that terminate at the thermostat area- rather than through the block, allowing the thermostat to pass fluid?
