What was causing the overheating Mick ???
When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

car had been sitting for a long time first it had blown head gaskets, then i was stumped as the radiator seemed to take alot of water to fill and when released would empty quickly so didn't seem to be blocked, i end up changing the water pump and the radiator and the problem is solved so i don't know which it was i'de say the radiator as i've put a filter in the top hose and i'm collecting quite a bit of crud/scale, mine may not have been blocked but might not have had enough cooling capacity as the one i put in is a H/QJZX big 4 core aircon radiator and when i had the heads off it's a 307 block but been bored out to 4"+40 which is quite a bit

funny you are not the first to say this when it cools down a little i'm going to dissconnect the vacume line to the modulator and see what happens in park and neutral it'll sit there and idle fine but drop it in gear nad you have to fiddle with the gas pedal to keep it running it won't idle, drives and runs fine other than that does downshift hard though when slowing for a corner etc

yeah i like it too, but i have to sell it can't afford to keep it plus the funds from selling it WILL go into the austin
