[QUOTE="user 14190, post: 557159, member: 14190"] Is the radiator cap of the correct pressure for the system, can you go up a couple of pounds with the cap to get a higher boiling point? I ended up putting one of these digital readouts on the Pajero and then moved it onto the Mazda BT50 as the Pajero temp gauge never moved from the midway no matter what happened outside or the conditions were, was surprised just how much the digital readout varied, but the temp gauge on dash never changed. Might help to establish if the motor is running too hot without the caravan, may need a larger/more tubes radiator to cope.
