So, took the JImny for a quick spin today.
After 5 mins the temperature reading was at about 3/4. So something is wrong.
I'm guessing either pump or thermostat.. Hoping for the thermostat

I have taken the thermostat out and put it in boiling water. After a couple of minutes boiling the thermostat have opened about 3 mm. Is that enough ?
Update
Took the Jimny for a spin without thermostat installed. Temperature reading was steady just 1 mm above minimum. So will get a new thermostat monday
