By the way I do see some small spots on the radiator of old leakage but just small spots.. planning on doing 195 stat but would like to replace pump and radiator if they seem to be an issue as well at same time. but don't want to fork out the money on them if not needed...
If you have holes in the rad. you could be letting air in, causing air pockets that the water can't push out
