engine temp. gurus enter here if you dare

83 300SD

heres what I've done
-new thermostat
-new auxiliary fan comes on before 100
-Mercedes fluid. Flushed rad not block.
-cleaned out radiator (OEM Behr) with compressed air
-ran defrost on hot. At first it was not hot after a few it got hotter.
-removed top rad hose and it was full at thermostat.

Since the used aux.fan the temp. stays at 100. But I did blow #10 fuse yesterday. If i turn ac(has been topped off with 134) off and turn EC button or heat button, temp will drop a bit.

Would like to get it down a few degrees.

Your thoughts are appreciated
