how much does it heat up.

oh yeah you said 210

have you checked all the places that deal with your heating like the radiator. see if its clogged. or see if there is oil on the back of the radiator i heard that the cummins leaked a little in the front of the motor and the oil can sometimes build up on the radiator and make it get hot.

X2 is the rad full the only thing else i could think of is that it has an air pocket in it and hasnt worked out yet sometimes seen that happen they fill up then when u run them for awhile the air pocket works out. And new rad cap too?
