Installed a champion three row radiator along with new water pump, thermostat, pressure cap, it will now not reach operating temperature. It will run at the hottest 170 setting off codes for thermostat not reaching temperature. I have tried six thermostats, no luck with any. So far the only solution seems to be partially blocking the overflow line from the radiator to the pressure tank, with that restricted everything seems to work perfectly. Radiator is hot hot on driver side, cool on passenger side return side and vehicle is at operating temperature. Anyone else had this type of problem? Also, it pressure tests fine.
