Really helpful thanks everyone will get myself down to the local pug shop, easier to just buy one than do it on the lathe.
I only put coolant in when I run it and I've not overheated it so don't think its failed, luckily the garage never gets cold anyway - the garage nextdoor is owned by a restaurant and they have all the heat exchange outputs from the fridge/freezers backed up against the adjoining wall so I have one heated wall, got a thermometer in there never seen it drop below 10degrees c
Reckon I mustve taken it off to flush the head out properly, do vaguely remember doing that a fair while ago but can't see how I wouldve managed it!
