2017 ram 1500 vvt 3.6
New thermostat, cap, water pump, radiator
So when idling it's 2217-224 degrees like normal
When I drive if at low RPM going about 55mph everything is ok. If I have to pass or go up a hill longer than 10secs and then let off. The temperature will rise to about 240-260
After it reaches temp, if I coast, keeping low RPM it will quickly go back to normal.
It's funny how fast it will go up in temp then back down if I cost. But this issue came 8 days after changing the thermostat. We had the truck on a slant, and ran for about 30 mins with cap off. So no, it's not air. I've also changed anything it could be.... What is wrong
