T/A, Have you tried a 180 degree thermostat? What ratio water to anti freeze mixture do you have? In Florida you don't need much anti-freeze. Is your lower hose collapsing? Do you have a fan shroud and is the fan positioned correctly in it? Is the radiator clean, inside and out? A good 14-16lb pressure cap on the radiator?
