For what its worth, after replacing my water pump and clutch fan, my temp bangs around, from 220 to 170, does this with either 195 thermostat I have lying around. Sometimes it settles down at 195 and stays there. Sometimes its bouncy.
With the old cheapo water pump, and half working fan, it stayed at 180, steady, in all weather.
It kinda makes me mad, but I guess now that the car is better, its just worse now.
