For coolant temp read Cylinder Hear Temperature (which you must monitor), 

however you will need to replace the radiator pressure cap from 0.9 bar to 

1.1 bar for which Skydrive will charge you £50 for the priveledge.



The other issue is that Evans coolant is incompatible with water based 

coolants and if you have been using a glycol mix then you will need about 

2-3 liters of Evans to flush out the existing water from your system in 

addition to filling it afterwards. That means you will need two lots of 

Evans to do the job properly - I think its about £40 quid for 4 litres.



Personally I dont see any great advantage to using the Evans coolant IMHO. 

Others may think differently. However our engine is a standard 80hp 912 and 

not a 914 so cooling is probably not such a problem.
