before any more money is spent try no thermostat and see what the fan does if its ok then procced with 80c replacement if its not we need to investigate further

Without thermostat the fan  will never stop with switch 82

Well then 80c thermostat is not going to cut it. Given that you have new rad and all I would look into a tiny head gasket failure

hello, as I said before, I installed the 80'c thermostat.

but i need an opinion
Does this 10'c difference cause problems with the engine? (fan switch 85-80)

I'm thinking of installing an 80-75c fan switch if I can find it.

what are your thoughts

Well IMO there's no point in running the fan if the thermostat hasn't opened.

 

The fan won't run if thermostat is closed - the switch is at output side of the radiator, which is at ambient temperature when the thermostat is closed. But with 70° switch, it might run even at higher speeds in high-load situations. I wouldn't go beyond 5° difference.

Having tried 70-75 switch it caused the fan to run wayyyyy too much.

I heavy traffic at summer actually works all the time.

For me last only one day, i could stand it and the next day at morning i was in the repair-shop with the demand ''change it now''.

Some say ''this will save your gasket@ but i don't agree.
