Re: Saxo radiator switch
Idle speed is around 800rpm always cold and hot, it never had a fast idle cable attached to it and no waxstat on the thermostat housing is blocked off with a big allen head plug. It seems to pulse when idle only when engine is warm or hot, doesnt seem to do it when cold.

Re: Saxo radiator switch
Issue seems to be fixed after replacing the injector lines and rebleeding the system, idle not pulsing anymore, and the radiator fan is operating normally now, comes in at the right temp

Re: Saxo radiator switch
Good to hear it's sorted. Could have been air in the fuel, which was slow to clear.
