Thanks for the replies . . . I think I'll stay with the stock temp (195*F), but use a Milodon hi-flow thermostat. As is turns out, 195F is right between the temperature settings for the two 240 volvo OEM thermostats (one at 87*C/189*F, the other at 92*C/198*F).

I figure that "while I'm in there" I'll have the radiator flow checked, etc., to make sure that that's not the problem.

I'll let you know what I find--and will post a picture of anything "good."

Thanks again,

Steve A-
