Hi Eddie,

Welcome to the forum. Would you mind posting with lower case for future ones - all capitals is quite hard to read.

In answer to your query, when you say 'hot' or 'cool' are you referring to the engine itself? If so, are the exhaust pipes the same temp? If not, it's probably not the coolant, but one cylinder not running properly.

Alan
