Hi

I think I might have a issue with my thermostat I was just wondering what temperature should a 320/6 hit on a normal drive, outside temp about 10 degrees.

Mine is hitting 3/4 on the gauge within 5 minutes, I cleaned out my coolant bottle so I can see the water level and I can see the water is being pumped around.
Is there a bleed valve anywhere I might of missed when I flushed the system? I ran it for about 5-10 mins with the cap off.

Thanks

Bleedingvalve is on the thermostathousing. Several things can be an issue.

* Thermostat offcourse.
* Radiator.
* Temperature sensor.
* Viscocoupling of the fan
* Coolantcap is not holdingpressure.

etc etc.
