hi everybody,

I am having some overheating issues with my convertible, it's running at 100 - 110 deg and fans cutting in and out all the time, flushed block, rad etc... and reverse flushed, fitted new stat, all hoses nice and hot, radiator hot all over and in good nick, fan belt tight, even took off water pump and housing to check impeller and all o,k, no leaks any where and it's not boiling over but it always ran at 90 deg and bit worried, put co tester on and it,s running at 0.45 ish percent, wonderd if it was running to lean and getting hot, drives loverly and no pinking etc.. never touched the timing, so should be o.k, but best check next i supose, any input or experiences would be fantastic

thanks
Sparky..
