I recently bought a Series III (-75 109" STW) for daily use (some of my friends did not understand this ). There has been lots of ugly things to fix due to the fact that there has been several "not so caring" owners during over 30 years
Yesterday I changed thermostat as the engine did not warm up well. Now the temperature rises nicely, but the temperature aggoring to the gauge looks pretty high. Otherwise everything seems to be perfectly fine (temperature does not rise from that, heater works fine etc.), so I guess it's harmless but annoying.
Does anyone have a clue, why this happends?
And here's picture from my "Solihull collection" (RR -87 EFI & LR -75 SIII STW).
