Subject: a similar thread....


|i know there was the thing recently about running hot and i know
|i didn't take much notice but i also know i am regretting it right now.
|Last night one of the water hoses feeding the carb cold start on my 92 GTII
|blew throwing nice brown boilg water all over my engine...
|i replaced the dead hose and top up the water while the engine was
running..
|but now it keeps running much hotter than before.
|it's not too serious it never gets above half way ( the fan kicks in)
|but its enough to piss me off... I assumed there was an airlock
|but the bottom  hose and the radiator are both hot when the car has been
run for a few
|minutes.
|Is it possible the thermostat?
|
|cheers
|Matt
