If your keen you could change the Thermostat but I think it's under the inlet manifold out of sight and possibly requires that to be removed, so I've not bothered with mine, but then I have a digital temperature guage and keep an eye on the temperature like a hawk, paranoid of issues. I don't want to overheat it and blow the head gasket but have a newish rad and good coolant too.

Your motor factors will advise on which coolant to use.
