no worrys rich will you meet you half way pal, even just to check if you like??

its down to wear and tear obviously the harder you push anything mechancial the shorter its life will be but if you let everything get to a normal operating temp then surely its ok imho of course, but if you look at it this way ie 2 brand new engines both waiting til operating temp before right foot is planted then the one that revs to 6k and the one that revs to 4k the one that revs to 4k would surely be the better the engine as it hasnt been pushed as hard?? anyway just wait til nice and hot ie 90 and 90, your ok as long as serviceing has been done on schedule??? if its gonna break it will break!! its an engine afterall and nothing is really guranteed :( :lol:

gezza replied to flyferrari's topic in Engine Bay
i would say yuopr water is tooo hot sorry just read my last post and the 104 at constant 90 was referring to the oil!! thats the hotttest it got water never went over 90 also just coz thermostat was new doesnt mean it wasnt faulty or isnt faulty now you know. it was roasting yesterday and i bet mine was running hot accordingly so presume mine should run alot cooler on a nice cool day??!! change thermostat?? can you hear fan kicking in??? dont know about specs for parts etc leave that to one of the teckies??!! -
they just called em gt1 gt 2 and gt3 referring to the "my" thats all as for albarth it was factory extras :lol: :lol: :lol:
