Thermostat

#1 Post by old git » Thu Jun 19, 2014 6:51 am

Will be coming to Blinkys meet on the Futura as the Falco seems to have a hot running issue, temp. climbs very quickly and runs about 10 deg. higher than usual.

I suspect a faulty thermostat, I guess jammed closed, so if anyone has a spare they could bring to the party I can borrow it for fitting & testing it would be much appreciated.

Obviously once tested it if fault is confirmed I will either supply funds or if not return to its rightful owner.

Thanks,
