I havent no, somebody has told me to take the thermostat out cause they will stop the pressure and it shouldnt chuck the water out, which is what weston performance did when i took it there months ago they said it ran better without one and said the engine was very strong after checking for hg failure

Mark at Thwaites, I am biased though, but plenty around these parts will be along to back me up. (dont let me down guys !!!)

He is based in Warwick, and quite a few WMI members use him for their loved ones.
