Hi Everyone, Thanks for all your help on the head gaskets and cooling system restore issues. I had aquired a bad new thermostat. I found with my IR Thermometer it did not start to open till 92C on the stove. So I checked my old one and it opens at 87c just like it should. Temp gauge now never leaves just above the LED. Rad fan works as it should. I will now always test new thermostats before I install them. One happy camper here!! Thanks for all your help.
