Very bizarre overheating problem. 200 1983

If you are planning to remove the thermostat, you can test it by putting it in a pan of water and heating on the stove until you see the thermostat open. Use a thermometer, cooking, digital, whatever you have. I also suggest a test of the car by driving without the thermostat. It will take a long time to warm up but it should be smoothly progressive. This can tell you if the problem is something else.
