My money is on the radiator. I apologize if I misinterpreted your post.
Totally understand your statement and I also think the radiator helped but the info from the radiator guy was that he didn't think there was enough interference built up inside the radiator to make any difference. The radiator is 4 rows deep and it's hard to figure out why this situation even exists. I'm sure it made some difference but I also know that the input from the pumps does cause an issue with building up pressure just from reading other posts in this forum. It seems that the 3/4" washer restriction made all the difference. Thanks for your reply and I appreciate all input.
