I don't know if that is your problem or not, but that is what happens when you run a t-stat with a temp too low, or worse, none at all. There is no reason, other than an ECM chip, for a street driven car to have anything less than a 180 degree t-stat, and in most cases, they should have a 192.

Take care,
