:Thanks much to all for the feedback!

:Is the factory fan a suitable replacement or is there a
:better one?
:
:Will also try the thermostat, the coolant system is clean.

:I'm getting a rattle inside the catalytic converter, which I
:assume means it bad. Should I eliminate the cat in the
:process?

:> (3) Replace the T'Stat with a 180 Degree unit
