I wonder how many cars are in fact driving around with this "holeless" gasket and concerned about overheating. Indeed I wonder if I am. Certainly on hot days (>25°C) I start to get a bit concerned when the temp rises to 95°+.
Interestingly the gasket on ebay also has this hole missing and appears to have the same date as Eric's ie 23.5.89 so presumably a common source.
I just wish there was a simple way of checking "hole or no hole"!
