Your problem is that you have a 'guage', whereas your MGA should be fitted
with a 'gauge' ;o)
Normally these read low when they start to fail, but I have seen my V8 gauge
read well into the oil pressure section when the steam pipe became blocked.
I don't think an MGA has anything like that, but maybe you have another
source of localised boiling. Steam has a much higher latent heat than water
at boiling point, so overall the cooling system may not be overflowing.
Could also just be an air-lock. Done anything on the cooling system lately?
