Thanks, I will replace the Cap.

I did the fan check as suggested.

With engine hot & running I turned engine off and watched to see how many turn the fan made until coming to a stop.

It stopped after about 15 turns, wow. When the engine is off and cold, it only free wheels about 1/4 turn.

Could the fan clutch be my problem?

Why is the radiator so cold then?

Am I looking at multiproblems? Still confused! Help!

I hate to start replace the rad, fan clutch or water pump without investigating all options.

Oh ya, the cooling system is NOT leaking.
The t-stat is Mercedes and new.
I will check the gage after I find out about the fan spin and cool rad.

THANKS SO MUCH.
