If your not dropping any coolant Rob ?

Fingers crossed then !

Yes, If not dropping coolant. Now for the big stupid question: what if i've been overfilling the coolant all this time?

Just a quick one, have you turned the dial on the centre console to max heat and made sure that the heater valve near the bulkhead definately opens with the engine running and the mode switch to the heat position?
Just thinking about isolating all possibility of any air lock.
(Self bleed kit is a must plus sometimes drilling a small hole about 3mm in the thermostat blank part that moves will reduce this chance. Older thermostats use to have a small one way valve in)

I am quite sure all the air pockets are gone, I think. Anyway, when I get back from my holiday I will order one of those autobleeder kits.

It has to be done and tried for the price.

Any particular vendor you suggest (EU based preferred customs-wise) ?

Rob,

I think I have all the bits lying around to make a self bleeder, barb for the top of the pump, T-peice and some hose, do you require it pre-EuroFeast? if not you can pick it up there, it's yours for a beer.

Not in a hurry, thank you James! (I will be enjoying 2 weeks of Greece sun first)

Will you be coming to EuroTec? I won't be attending Eurofest unfortunately.
