Morning (again)

Has anyone ANY idea what my problem could be(No, wait until you all hear the
actual problem before answering :-)), My '73 Spitfire 1300 is always showing
3/4 or MORE on the temp guage, often nearer to the red mark.  I have fitted a
full width early Herald Radiator(No improvement at all), new thermostat and new
fan belt, the car does suffer from fuel vaporising if I switch it off and leave
it a few minutes before restarting.

Any thoughts on what to check.

ps, if I take the thermostat out the guage reads about 1/4.

Rich
