thenewguy 0 Posted May 26, 2011 hello guys 'n' gals i have recently put a 2.00 9a engine in a car that originaly was a 1.8 kr every thing is good apart from when am motoring along it runs at about 70/80 degrees however if i stop in traffic it goes up quite rapidly to about 105/110 the fan comes on at about 91 degrees for about 30 seconds then goes off even though the temp is still rising it will keep coming on and off when its running at about 110 degrees i have fitted a brand new water pump and thermostat and fan switch thermo and its still happening if anyone has done this conversion before or has experienced problems like this any feedback would be most welcome many thanks. woody Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RW1 0 Posted May 26, 2011 Did you change the coolant thermostat with the new water pump? If not, it could be its not fully opening when it needs to. But its opening position is OK when driving along. . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
