Hi folks,
I have an annoying over heating problem. I cant find the reason, but the symptoms are the temperature guages goes terminal about 5 mins into a drive. The radiator gets quite hot but doesnt seem to use much coolant. It freaks me out more than anything, as I am currently rebuilding the engine on the clubby after the wife dropped all the coolant out and cooked it properly. The motor is only an 1100, running a 1 1/2 carb (single) and runs sweet. All assistance greatfully appreciated.

Jim.

check your temp sender first, then your thermostat, then fix your blown head gasket
