[dolans1 at verizon.net]

What does the temp gauge read when the dummy light comes on?, just over 80?

>Both are new and both are the correct parts - and they seem to be working....Rob Is it possible that the radiator be faulty somehow causing it to swell under heat and pressure thereby reducing the water level???  ----- Original Message -----   From:  Markus Meyer   To: Mercedes Coupes Mailing Lists   Sent: Monday, February 04, 2008 12:07   PM  Subject: Re: [W126 Coupe] Unusal radiator   problem - '87 560SEC

>         Help - Had     a new genuine radiator installed in my '87 560SEC (Euro) . Problem is     that when it gets hot, the water level drops in the overflow tank and the     light comes on. When it cools down, the water level rises and the the level     is correct again - any ideas? - Rob        The MB Coupes Website!
