Ok after everything that i have done above, i replaced the radiator today and still my temperature goes a little over halfway (i would say that it never goes above 2/3). So after all of this, i am thinking maybe the new temperature sensor has caused the gauge to read differently, so i put a thermo in the radiator neck and when the gauge was exactly exactely halfway, the temperature was 190 degree F......

So here is my question, is it ok to drive if it never goes about 2/3 with a dead middle reading of 190???
