Checked that this weekend and all good.

I went on a 20 mile slow ride and noted thumb nail full of coolant pool at the bottom of the cylinder .

So cleanded and let her tick over for a while, fan came on three times nothing .

Went out for a 40 mile blast on Sunday, nothing

Will keep an eye, dont know if its slowly sorting itself or not!
