What ever I did worked :-\ I'd guess the shroud but not sure. You can watch the Tstat open, temps drops and then comes back to 180 and stays there. Bush hogged for an hour or so, it would have climbed after awhile before.  it wasn't as hot out but still 80 or so. Thanks for the help, the Ford lives to work again. :)

One more question, the old TStat had some kind of small valve in it, maybe a 1/8 hole with some kind pressure actuated valve. I'm assuming it allowed small amount of coolant to go in one direction before TStat opened. New TStat didn't have that, should I drill hole in new TStat?

I never have? I would think it just aids in purging air from the system. Probably be ok without drilling the new one.
