i cant get the engine up to temperature even after running for 20-30mins. i have fitted a new 82degree thermostat. i have replaced the hoses and have also fitted a fan cowl that was missing. i have replaced the temp guage but tested in a kettle before fitting. i did manage to get the guage to move before adjusting the timing.
that will be the problem then, i have just been running to check the charging system not working much at all. although i would have thought the thermostat would get te temp up quickly even without working.
