Typical Rover issue - a $2 plastic part has rendered a vehicle inoperable. Last month my plastic radiator cap retired. I ordered genuine plastic caps from Rovers North - and the threads aren't the same. I have a ~4 year old proline radiator. Didn't even occur to me the threads may be...

i've dealt with this problem for years. i'll try the temp sensor. thanks for the info.
