I had this issue last year, and ended up 'solving' it buy just running with no thermostat... Engine got up to Operating temp, and never had any issues of running to cold or hot...
Everything is new (T-stat, water pump was new last season same problem back then, everything is sealed correctly, still doesn't seem to be getting a strong current of coolant past the Thermostat... I feel like I need to bleed the system, but am not finding anything regarding that in my Haynes manual.
On a side note, the radiator cap sits below the highest point of the radiator hose off the top of the engine, and sits at a slight back/forward angle, would either of these facts cause this kind of issue? Suggestions/Ideas/Etc?
The radiator has NOT been replaced, but I have no leaks, so I can't think of why I would need to replace it...?
