I’ve also changed the radiator cap from a .8 bar cap to a 1.1 bar cap.
Reason behind this is these TD’s like to run a wee bit warm. Having a higher pressure in the cooling system raises the boiling point so we’ll see how it goes.
Last trip was good, sat mostly on 90-95c, but I was travelling in convoy with my daughter who was towing a horse float, so we were only doing around 90kph.
On the way home however, I was sitting between 100-120kph and the water temps sat at 105-110c. That was at 40plus degree outside temps.
Still under factory spec and I know even at 110c the water won’t be at boiling point due to being pressurised. 118c is boiling point but I want to give the TD a bit more wiggle room with the temps.
