I recently replaced a leaking radiator on 2013 Ram 1500 with the 3.6. I decided to replace hoses and tstat at the same time. I used the MOTORAD 953194 tstat 194F. Before all the work the engine warmed up to about 212F. Now it tops out around 192F. The engine is throwing a P0218 for not reaching operating temperature fast enough. I've checked and the tstat is not stuck open, but maybe opening a little early, say 190? Other than the tstat, anything else that would cause this?
