Need help sooner than later 140-160 1975

The radiator is much larger than required, if running hot then you might have a failed thermostat. Temperature sensors (especially low cost one) also get damaged from steam and then the FI will be confused.

On my 144 I can run with the radiator half full and it still goes fine (New Zealand has very average temperatures).
