B18c running hotter than normal
B18c with Koyo aluminum radiator. Normally it runs in the 190F range and will sit about 200-205F range during long stops or after running it hard..until a few days ago.. Now its bouncing around 205-220F and will sit a 225-230F during long stops. Oil levels are good, coolant level is good and no signs of head gasket problems. Anyone have any ideas?

Maybe your T-stat is not opening up when it should and needs replacement?
