Also flushed the system and dropped in a new thermostat. On the drive home I was sitting on 100km/h between 84-91 deg. It got no higher than 93 the whole run however it is cold in Sydney tonight so time will tell.

Also changed the serpentine belt while it was all apart as after 90,000km it was starting to crack.

Thanks for all your help and input I will let you know how i go on the run up the coast early Friday morning, its always the hills out of Sydney that get it hot under the collar.

Glad to hear that, I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Well this is shaping up to be an interesting campfire conversation on the Watagans trip

If the flatbed makes the campsite then Wayne will have to dial in……..

Apparently he cant make it, personally I think he is worried about being shown up by a flatbed

Dont worry Ian, my 110 has spent its fair share of time on the back of a tilt tray. My mates like to remind me with things like, "got the towy on speed dial #1" or if driving down the road and see any tilt tray driving by, they ask if that was Darren or Steve driving? becuase I must know them all on a first name basis? Or is my next truck going to be a tilt tray to save time…..

Just remember to use the dipstick when filling with oil Serg and you won't have to use the tilt tray . Sorry mate,had to have a dig . Pat

oh its been on more than that 1 time, 1st engine failure of the 300tdi was a good 150km trip, head gasket was another….never been let down by the gearbox, t/case or diffs though.

If it makes you feel any better we are getting rid of our LC's at work because of constant troubles with them. Pat
