Yes bled it many times. Bought a 160 today but probably will just take it back. And like driving, it doesn't want to shift when in drive unless you step on it hard. Too many problems for me.

Definitely take back the 160 thermostat. Unless you can turn your fans on or off manually, or have it retuned for the lower thermostat, then it isn't going to fix your overheating problem.
