1 Answer

your thermostat is ganky and stuck open...change the coolant with the lower- temp stuff and get a NEW 195 degree thermostat...should remain closed until operating temps occur.....then will open up to the heaterbox....giving you fresh near-boiling hot coolant through the loop~ remember coolant is buggered up making the failure...change that......(seasonally s'posta)~
