Colant level is decreasing, just havnt had the time to check where it goes (I have a preassure pump wich I can fit to the expansion tank, that way I dont have to warm up the engine)
Ok, there's a leak all right.
Ignition might or might not be an issue, at the time I am running the standrat camshaft with an S-type, distributor.
That shouldn't mean a lot - I was only concerned with the advance at low RPM (static advance) and the difference between the two distributors are very small. Roy has told me (here?) that the only reason the later S-models are fitted with Ducellier dizzys is that they were the same ones that went into the Tagoras. I.e. it has nothing to do with tuning.
the electric fan is kicking in, but not until the needle has well passed the 90 mark.
Sounds like normal, i.e. there's sufficient flow in the radiator.
I think I will order a new waterpump, and (thermostat?) (I have changed the head once, and the waterpump Is cheap compeard to that
There's a good chance the water pump is to blame as it is the most common cause for water leaks AFAIK.
