So finally the right fuel pump has turned up but I have also discovered the next weakest link. I turned the ac on for the first time the other week and the water temp gauge rose up, it has never ever moved before.
Thinking about his logically, the rad is behind the ac heat exchanger, 2 charge cooler rads and now the inter cooler for the traction fluid for the SC. I guess there is just not enough cool air getting to the rad when the ac pump is running.
May well have to look at getting a more efficient rad built, all ideas welcome.
