Your original problem of 195 degrees may have been caused by trapped air in the system that was alleviated by what you have done recently. I'm happy for you getting it to run cooler! I can't count how many times I have taken something apart, found nothing wrong, put it back together and everything was back to normal. When that happens, I still take full credit for my masterful mechanical abilities. Ya, right!
