OK. A qeustion for the A series owners.. Hears the story - Put a new dash in the 1200 and hooked up all the wires. Started it up and stocko temp gauge worked and didnt go over the threshold point. Kool. All good. Now, this dash has a after market temp gauge were the cigi lighter went, hooked up all the wires - postive, negative and one to the temp sender. All good, hooked up and everythings reading after starting again. Now, temp rises slowly, gets to about 90 degrees and thinking it should start to level off. No, it rises up passed 100 degrees and kept creeping at a steady rate. Why? After that, i switched it off and the radiator was fairly cold and stuck my finger in the water and was only mildly warm.....
I have nailed it down to either a faultly thermostat or the actual thermostat is in backwards? But i doubt it. So what other reasons could cause this. Any input is helpfull, but a thermostat change is in order i think...
