Engine Water Temp?
#8
lets talk over head, means extra capacity of the cooling system.

extra RAD tubes, its extra for a reason.
extra flow on pump, is there.
pump spins fast , plenty fast all the time. unless belt slips. or vanes rust to 1/2 size.
the engines on this car can go to limp home mode and make too much extra heat ( long story not typing it ). and if the overhead is lacking, bam it overheats.


its like a boat with extra, side walls , high freeboard and high gunwale's , can go in deep ocean and not sink.
same with that rad, it has extra and longer tubes.
if one clogs, say there are 10 tubes, you lost 1/10th cooling extra capacity.
you need it up hills, and with 1000 lbs and 4 passengers aboard.

the engine makes huge heat
in fact 75% of the heat energy in the fuel is wasted to here Radiator and out tail pipe.
so all cooling systems have a huge heat load., yours lacks cooling..
