    The vehicle doesn't need to get to 210 degrees, it only needs to be close to 195 since that's the thermostat temperature. 210 is just the temperature that the low speed fan setting is set for, and it's primarily meant for when you're not moving quick enough to generate sufficient airflow through the rad. Be happy it doesn't easily reach 210

    Check all your pulley's by hand with the belt off for side-to-side play or noise when they rotate. A little movement is normal for the belt, but it shouldn't be jiggling a ton. One bad pulley will affect every other pulley.

    And everyone just likes to bust your balls here, don't take it personally ;D
    For thine is the Cam, The Piston, and The Rod, Forever and ever (or until they break). Amen.

    As someone who has recently moved, I know it is possible to be working your tail off AND be broke. Also, a woman with a three month old child already has a job... That three month old child! Cut the guy a little slack. Nobody here knows his whole story.

    Rant over. Carry on.
