What temp is your fan starting to come on????
I've been wondering about the tank, the water level is higher than the top of the heads, albeit marginally. I was wondering if raising it some more would give a head of water above the engine which may help?

The fan isn't coming on as I'm not getting any waterflow through the rad as the (NEW) stat is apparently remaining closed.
