Bob & Carmen, Question: after you "hit 1000 RPM or more..." and it goes to the "steady 190 degree range", if you go back to an idle does the temperature go back up?

It may go to 200 deg F on the gauge Once we hit 1000 RPM or more it quickly drops down to steady 190 degree range where it has always been. I changed the impeller and installed a new raw water pump, but it didn't help Next I was thinking checking the heat xchanger (once I remove the end- cap, will I need new seals?) or replacing the thermostat. Is it easy to replace a thermostat and could that caiuse the engine to run warm at idle?
