On top of the thermostat? Where on top of the thermostat?

Isn't 80*C turn off too low? My temp gauge shows over 80*C even when cruising down a steep grade with 50*F ambient temperature. Definitely no need for the fan to be engaged yet your set-up might have the fan energized. I'd have the fan turn off at 85 or 87*C. Of course this is in a 124/603. IIRC 617s tend to show cooler temps on the gauge.
