Hi all,
I put my Mgf which has been off the road for a few years in for an mot recently.
It failed on a few things but the test was stopped as the engine started to get very hot and the cooling fan did not come on. I thought it might be an air lock as I had the engine out just before, but after further bleeding, the water level stabilised and has not moved since. It's not a head gasket as the head and gasket has been done.
My mate told me to disconnect a plug from the rhs of the engine bay and the cooling fan should run and it does.
Is this a temp sender fault? It also failed on CO level being too high. I changed the lambda, so hopefully that is now cured!
Any suggestions are welcome as I don't want to cook the engine!
Many thanks!
