I've just had the cambelt kit and water pump replaced on my Mk 1 Mondeo. The system was refilled with 50/50 antifreeze, which is about what it had before.
I noticed on the way home that it runs hotter now than it did before - the gauge is on the R-M of 'NORMAL' instead of N-O. Not a huge difference, I know, but I'm curious.
I would have thought a new pump would have made it run slightly cooler.
Any ideas?
