Hot 156

["Guy Weller" <Guy.Weller@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,
I am new to this list but am well used to posting on the list for my
"alternative transport" which is an A-H Sprite.
I have just bought a 1999 156 2.0TS.  Very pleased with it. It has been well
cared for although has quite a high mileage.

That said, I think  it is running a bit on the hot side.
At a steady 80mph the temp settles onto the 3/4 mark on the dial
(110degrees?).  Under heavier load it creeps higher.
Fan is cutting in and car drives well, but is this normal?
Should I suspect the water pump, and if so, how big a task is this to
replace.

Guy
