you might have a partially clogged radiator hose. Happened to us on another car.
BTW, motor way is like our highway over in the US (for those that don't know).my car:
'86 Caprice Classic. Soon to have a 350 crate motor. Shooting for 300rwhp.
the project:
check the www for pics, but a '36 Chevy Master Sedan, MII front end, Jaguar IRS, '93 LT1 powerplant with plans for 350rwhp, and many many other goodies

your fans aren't even set to kick on till some where in the 220's-230's. If this is happening while your driving check to make sure your radiator fins are clean and not bent and also check to make sure the little shroud that forces air up in is not missing.1994 Firebird Formula, M6, Fan switch, 160 thermostat, Pacesetter LT headers, Morosso CAI, TB bypass, True duals.Comment

You can't just open the screw you have to actually bleed it by running the car with the thermostat open. There are a links on the internet on how to do this I think www.shhoebox.com is one but someone correct me if I'm wrong. And be careful with the reverse flow cooling and aluminum heads an air bubble in the line can be bad.1994 Firebird Formula, M6, Fan switch, 160 thermostat, Pacesetter LT headers, Morosso CAI, TB bypass, True duals.Comment
