Before, when the thermostat was running correctly, it was running about 80-82*C. then it was running at about 75*C. The new one makes the car run at about 92*C, no matter if the temp is 35*F or 65*F.

Any ideas?
I believe this is an OK temp, what does it rise to if left idling when hot, when do fans cut in - I believe up to 105 is OK.
