2.0 running a little hot

[txrocco at sbcglobal.net (ATS - Patrick Bureau)]

define "runs at idle warm"
define "at highway speeds it runs where I would expect it"
define " on city streets it seems to run hot"

also the new temp fan switch is pretty useless if you do not change the
thermostat as well they are a team, if the thermostat does not release  flow
until 95' and your have a fan switch set at 80's the fan will run, the
radiator will be cool, but it will "seem to run warmer than it should"

at idle with a low temp switcha and thermostat you should be dead on or
below the LED, on highway same thing, and on city streets, a little atop the
led.

if it sits along 3/4 mark, you should see to a flush of your radiator. or
perhaps replacing it. if you do have an 80's thermostat.

=>So I've installed a fresh 9A into my Scirocco including a low temp
=>thermostat, low temp fan switch and new water pump... At an idle it runs
=>warm but not hot... at highway speeds it runs about where I would expect
=>with the low temp thermostat... but on city streets it seems to run hot.
=>What could be wrong???
=>
=>I remember my PL did this once before a major tuning and I think it had
=>something to do with the timing. Any suggestions?
