Do you think thats the whole problem? Or the reason the fans are coming on at the wrong speed?

Thermostat was jammed open, did not open and close just stuck half open.

What temp is your thermosat???? I have 82 degrees one...Mine takes around 10 minutes to reach 82 degrees....Do you also have a 135 kpa cap??? Have you changed your radiator??

i think mine is a 79deg thermostat. i replaced it when i blew my last radiator. i bought a brand new 135kpa cap when i bought the new radiator and the mechanic also flushed my system 3 times for me just to get all the **** out and pressure tested it when he put it all in for me. I just drive it quietly until it is warm, so i dont do any damage at those lower temps.
