I have run the first 400km with my spit mk3. Everything seems ok except of cooling. At our climate, 30-35C (86-95F, I think...) is normal especially in July-August period. At this temperature the reading on the gauge is 50% cruising at 80-90km/h (50-55mph) and the engine works perfectly. Problems begin in towns or in traffic jams driving in lower gears. The engine stalls in idle or it seems having ignition problems at higher speed. I have the same problem, when I drive correctly (gauge at 50%) and stop for 5 minutes. Restarting the engine in this cases is difficult, the starter can turn slowly the engine and after restarted, stall often, because during the 5 minutes the engine is not cooled and the gauge gets to the critical 60%. I have replaced the old coil for a new one, this was the only used part in the ignition, but it did not help. I have small radiator and normal fan. Fuel pump seems working. What do you think about it? thanks, peter
