From a cold start, if I leave the Z on my driveway the temp will never budge past 178. However, if I drive it for 15-20 minutes, come back home and let it idle on my driveway, the temp starts raising up. After 15 minutes or so the temp starts hitting 210 and that's when I just shut it off. I've installed a new radiator, replaced the fan clutch, fixed my radiator shroud, cleaned the hell out of the AC condenser and changed my thermostat. Still acts the way as I described. I'm thinking maybe it's the belt tension as you mentioned. I don't have the equipment to check the tension per the FSM. Do you mind sharing with me how you checked the tension and found out the belt is loose? I don't want to tighten the belt too much and over work the water pump bearing, thus I think I actually have it loose to begin with.
