Bob,

Finally some good news re. 6 cooling.

I am curious to know what else came out of the system when you drained the Thermocure mixture.  Was there a lot of muck?

As I said, having completely rebuilt my engine in 2017 (in parallel with Phil), I know my block and head are spotless inside so I do not need to consider that treatment.  I also reconditioned the water pump and the reconned rad is now fitted.  As both Mme. and I are “vulnerable” and this area has a particularly high incidence of the plague, I am still avoiding going out.  So, as you will probably have seen elsewhere, I have taken this opportunity to do a lot of other jobs.

All finished now so I hope to fefit the wings today and then I may be tempted to take to the highways  and byways for that long-awaited test run.  I shall report, as requested, but I shall not be able to furnish such precise temperature detail as that you have supplied.
