That would be really weird! I need to test car for a few more days to confirm.

is a good idea. It will help
achieve a more normal engine temp as well as make the problem visible

Yup, it's NOT fixed. I drove the piss out of it today and it was fine. The
lower rad hose started warming up indicating coolant circulation. No
overheating. Then went to a friend's house and on way back it started again,
temp rising, no heat, the usual. It was a 7 mile trip back home that

I don't know what to think. The truth is that my part of the world is getting
colder, not warmer. It is my understanding that warming is responsible for the
climate change as we now call it. Problem is that I don't see any warming but
polar ice caps are melting so how is that explained? And our

It was no more than 15 degrees out when I was driving so maybe you are right
that coolant is losing heat in radiator prior to returning to engine.
Interesting hypothesis!
