    My thanks to whoever it was (my memory is cr@p) who pointed out that my air intake needed to be removed before I went puddle driving. Anyway I have modified the air intake slightly, so that it faces the rear of the engine compartment. I did have the end vertical, but when I was driving over 90, the temp started to climb, so I laid it flat and it seems ok now. Any thoughts?

    Your memory is $$$$, the same person who pointed it out also helped turn it round, Cant see why it should make any difference with the temp though
    If it aint broke dont fix it

        On a more useful note, , it's due to high and low pressure areas.
