Hi Guys,
I suspect my thermostat has gone, but thought I'd post this here. My Marea TD125 HLX is not running at anywhere near full acceleration. However, the fuel filter has just been changed and it's also had an engine flush with full oil filter and oil change today.
I can get up to high speeds on the motorway, but just not with great acceleration. I have noticed my temperature gauge does not seem to be behaving normally. For example, when driving at 70mph+, I'd expect it to be cranking up to the halfway mark and then the fan to kick in shortly afterwards. At the moment, it's not even getting past the quarter point mark and doesn't seem to be getting hot enough for the fan to kick in.
Would I be right in thinking my thermostat is stuffed?
Cheers.
James
