BTW, while turning the heat on will help a little, it's probably the electrical draw of the heater fan turning on the radiator fans that was doing the most good. Just think, with the FC thermoswitch, you wouldn't have to do that anymore.
You must have missed that i have a fan switch wired to the relay system. Fans are ON when I want them to be on....car creeps to 215 with fans ON. Maybe they just aren't running as fast with my switch as they would with a thermoswitch.

I don't think there is air in the system because I remove the cap after the car sits for a while and theres no release of pressure or gap of air.
