Coolant is a thought just cause I tried the tester they sell and its saying its only good for 218 degrees before boiling so think its boiling where im running.. I picked up some full strength anti freeze and do that. Engine bay is running really hot under to, melted my k&n filter I found out. While I was idle in drive thru as usual it went up so I turned on the heat for a minute (good times when its over 100 degrees out lol) and it dropped back down to normal on the gauge. I had got the reader late in the evening so only got to mess with it for a short time.
Been suggested as well that the new aluminum thermostat housing could be producing more heat then the plastic one would and or holding more heat there which houses the sensors. Really h ate the idea of swapping it out for the old plastic one again just to check.
