my temp goes 100 when im stationary for a while, but the fan kicks in and it goes down slowly, but if u want it to go down faster, put your heaters on full blast and full heat and watch it go down

run your fans constantly on hot and see if they stay hot, if they drop between hot and cold, either waterpump or thermostat
