Coupled with no factory coolant level sensor, the information system relating to coolant temperature provided to the driver is pretty useless. By the time the temperature gauge has started to rise, arrived at 12 o clock and driver noticed and taken appropriate action, the engine has probably been over done.

Great - thank you. I'll have a play with that but probably less faff with my phone and Torque Pro. I also have an android system I could hook up to do the same automatically.

If you can get one now - Bizzy Lizzie who sold them regularly on e bay has stopped selling the coolant gauge kits.

No, Jack made a couple of bespoke items including the fuel filter clip and the gauge, so you'll be lucky to find one. There was another digital gauge available but it was a bit pricey, I'll see if I can find it ��

Here it is, a Scangauge https://www.scangauge2.co.uk

This is his shop - might be worth asking if he has a stray kit left - took Trikey 35/40 minutes to fit.

Thanks lads I contacted Jack on eBay but he replied saying he no longer has any. There's an alarm feature on Torque Pro and it should go on my android system no problem - I'll give it a go.
