I have talked to some good buddies of mine that run dwarf cars with 1000cc sport bike motors and they have had similar thermostat issues. Since they delete all the unnecessary coolant lines to run in the cars they kept getting an air pocket. What they did is installed a "purge line" near the thermostat. Once the motor comes to temp they open the line and allow the air to be pumped out holding the line higher then all other elements of the cooling system. I am going to try doing the same off of the coolant port I have blocked off behind the thermostat housing. This is the only spot air could be trapped and effecting the thermostat.

Ill keep you guys posted as I plan on doing this this weekend. Hopefully it works!


Pretty much what i said....
