I now have the car running nicely and no heating issues now. I changed the otterstat and bled the system properly (i clearly didnt do it correctly the first time). Now the fans kick in at the 220 line and shut off at the white line between 100 and 220. Happy days. I will be installing a fan switch soon.
Passenger side rear lights now work fine too as ive soldered the bulb connectors as a temporary measure till i change to an LED setup. The board is pretty dirty and i cant clean under the connectors so have cleaned the area around the connectors and soldered to make a better connection. Huzzar!
I was a little naughty and took the car for a ride up and down my road. Was so awesome. It drives loverly and its now kinda hit me im an owner and i got a taste of living the dream.
Now to turn my attention to the braking system next. Then its time for an MOT and finally registering. Eek!
Oh here is the old otterstat. Can see why it doesnt work.
