Thanks BigKev, that seems to be about the best explanation I've heard yet. When I was driving it (pre-torque) I could almost predict when it was going to boilover. When in fact maybe it wasn't actually overheating (as one might expect when it overflows the overflow bottle) but building pressure and blowing by. The tempurature gauge never read accurately before (I assumed it was faulty) but now reads where it should be.
On another strange problem/fix,I have a Porsche 912 that kept on cooking generators, I tried everything to fix the issue...long story short it was the Optima battery...it made the generator work too hard to charge it...I replaced it with a regular 12volt and all was well. I guess something (almost) defy explanation.
