.........well had the stat, crank sensor AND fuel filter done today £166. minor problem after i took it home the idle went haywire 500 rpm-2600 rpm in traffic- quite worrying ! took it straight back, and as i pulled into the industrial estate where they are located it settled back to normal about 600 rpm. mechanic was very obliging and checked the connections especially the idle control vlv. i then popped the motor home all now ok!!?
car temp now gets up to 1 line below 90C and fans then cut in. used to just creep over bottom line.
car smoother throughout and seems to pull more in higher gears. oh and it was the plastic type crank sensor that i needed (thank gould- bank acc). so at the moment happy driver, ps does anyone else see the fuel gauge drop quickly when it gets down to 60L ? tone.

Might be worth cleaning the ICV...

Yes, my gauge drops quickly from 60l to about half full...
