You are probably correct. Today, dumped in 2 bottles Thermo-cure with thermostats OUT. Ran it several hours and it never got above the half mark... IR tester 160 to 180 both sides hoses, block and radiator full scope. Probably had some gook in radiator preventing or slowing flow from bottom to top. HOWEVER.. the two 180 stats were full of crud and crusted at the top, likely they were 'not opening' as designed. That Thermo-cure is some good stuff. I tried it based on success stories from Ford Barn.
