    I have aftermarket VDO temp gauge and now have sorted the problem of large movements up and down(60 to 115) because cable from sender was lying on top cable for EGT for some distance to rear of dash and obviously stray current was causing problems.Glad I installed Dessert Cooler radiator before last trip to the West.
    Not impressed with VDO Aust distributor as they do not answer phone or return calls when a message is left.
    At the end of the day, all you have is yourself and all you need is your friends (and in our case our Patrol)

    Changed the rad with the adrad. It was sitting on around 90* at 100k p/h with temps about 45 outside. If I pushed it any harder to say 110, temps got to around 108*.

    Iv fitted a 3inch exhaust since then though with dump pipe, new injectors and a tune plus a rebuilt fuel pump. Hasn’t really been hot enough since though to test it out though so will have to wait until summer now.

    Also advance your timing too. It will go sooo much nicer and lower EGT too
