Overheating

Hiiiiiiiiii

Since i topped up the oil i have noticed i need a new rocker cover gasket and it has been leaking, i have ordered the new one..

I just wondered if that would cause overheating of any time as it always sits in the middle of the thermostat and never just under like it used to!

It seems to overheat and trigger the fans rather often..anything i can check!?

would be checking all usuals like the thermo, fan sensor, rad switch, is water circulating (all pipes hot?)

have you enough coolant in system?

Rocker gasket won't cause it to overheat, just so long as oil doesn't get tooo low....which will make it overheat
