I had two cooling system incidents that have been resolved with advice from here and a new radiator, hoses, and thermostat.

After the repairs, engine speed has been 100 to 200 RPM faster than usual. With driving, idle speed seems to have resolved itself but, in gear, speed is still higher. For example, at 60 MPH in 5th gear, engine speed used to be 2100 RPM but it is now 2300 RPM.

What could have over-heated that would result in this ?

Thank you.
