If I remember rightly it ran ok before its last rights so possibly its oil related.

Thanks Paul,
what oil do you suggest please?
Yes, the donor car ran really well, When I collected it, I drove it home almost 200 miles & then 35 miles to you
before it took its last gulp of go go juice for a while
I thought maybe something is sticking, as its the first time its been fully up to temp in 13 months.
I,ll change the oil & filter tomorrow
cheers
