Mini Moke Water Temperature

Hi, Is the temperature sensor matched to the guage? If not it may be reading incorrectly and giving you a false high reading.

Yes I have gone to stage 1 but using the correct needle per the SU needle program - WinSu.

I am trying to get together a rolling road day with a couple of folks locally here.

There are many rolling roads but only one with Su knowledge.

Thanks Dave.

I think it is because it is welded/soldered on to the gauge.

To be clear the car is not overheating or boiling over or any of that sorts I am just curious to see if Minis read higher on the open road as opposed to street because of there side radiator.

Just check the timing that its not too far advanced. ( and that the advance curves are correct)?

Does the car have a thermostat.(or restrictor)? What is the opening temperature?

Which needles have you been using before and after?

Which spark plugs?

One other thing it could be is poor airflow through the engine bay. when I fitted all my spots I had to get a 3core instead of a 2core rad to keep it cool when driving.

It was fine at slow speeds, but really awful at anything about 50mph

The best radiator I have found is this one:

Steve.

Looks good.

The issue for me will be shipping to the colonies.

Thats a nice, My 3core came from my 1981 mini city, is brass and leaks even though its been repaired at least once :)

Might give that one a try some time.

cheers
