overheating?

[MQ MAD]

Thanks guys,

what's about the head gasket? Apparently is slight worn and would need to be changed. High consumption and hot engine are signs of worn gasket? (oil is not that dirty and engine not burning oil).

Radiator is clean and the fan is a proper one. 'll check the distributor over the week-end.

Dont touch the timing if its running fine
The fan it self could be correct , but the fan clutch hub itself could be stuffed and not doin its job
Id get the fan clutch hub checked, maybe replaced
Then or either get the radiator rodded out (entails a proper clean by a specialist ,not by a hose)
Your radiator cooling tubes could be blocked (common issue) or the cooling fins themselves could be cactus, entailing anew radiator

Most of the GQ and onwards radiators are a very thin alloy core radiator and are suseptable to blockage
IMHO i doubt the massive high mileage has to do with a cooling issue
A massive cooling issue usually results in a cracked head/head gasket issue and breaking down on the roadside, not high fuel consumption
