we tried the 210 t-stat, and had the same results.
There is a bypass port at the side t-stat, and that may be allowing too much flow through. When we put the 210 in we did not have the proper gasket, and had to make one. We forgot to put the indent for the bypass, and the temp climbed a lot more, up to about 225 before we shut it down for worry about overheating.
If the sending unit has a poor connection or bad wire it will give false readings at the gauge.
Try grounding the wire at the sending unit and the gauge should read max temp.
I think that engine also has a high temp warning light or alarm.
