Default Subaru Impreza gc8 Water temp

I had too remove some old water pipes on my GC8 since they had holes in they and squirted out water.

Last night I tried to bleed the system, how ever when idle the water temp dosen't seem to want to go over 74C, and when I push down the throttle the water imedelty goes down too 60ish C

Have you got a high flow thermostat fitted?

I have not, I was just confused as it didn't do that before I changed some water pipes.
How ever now it's running at 90 ish and when ever I step on the gas it'll immediately go down. Too 80C ish. But it seems too be working.

1. There is no known way to bleed the colling system. Burping it sometimes works but is not 100% especially on a GC8.

2. Drain and use my method to refill. https://www.scoobynet.com/general-te...-question.html
