I may catch some flack from saying this but I would try running it without a thermostat and see what happens. Also, try 100% water. I have seen holes drilled in the outer plate of thermostats to help cooling issues. I would only do this for testing purposes and would not consider it a long term fix (especially the 100% water idea) unless removal of the thermostat makes it run "normal".
