But not cooling the block, it's only cooling the coolant.

And if the thermostat is properly installed, it's reading the block water temp and regulating the coolant flow for the block, not the radiator...

Don't give up EB, the pump pumps the water out of the block to quick to cool it once the stat opens.
It takes a few miles but it finaly catches up and overheats on the highway. At least mine does, on the trails it's fine.( high flow pump) With a reg. pump it's fine on the highway but runs on the hot side on the trails.

I'm back too. I was booted off the computer by my better half. She claims I'm "addicted" to this forum.
Hi my name is elwood, and I'm addicted to jeep-cj.com
See, I told you, now I have proof!!!

Newton's law of cooling, states that the rate of heat loss of a body is proportional to the difference in temperatures between the body and its surroundings, or environment. The law is
Q = Thermal energy in joules
h = Heat transfer coefficient
A = Surface area of the heat being transferred
T0 = Temperature of the object's surface
Tenv = Temperature of the environment
The heat transfer coefficient, in thermodynamics and in mechanical and chemical engineering, is used in calculating the heat transfer, typically by convection or phase change between a fluid and a solid:
where
ΔQ = heat input or heat lost
h = heat transfer coefficient
A = heat transfer surface area
ΔT = difference in temperature between the solid surface and surrounding fluid area
Δt = time period, s
Q = Thermal energy in joules
h = Heat transfer coefficient
A = Surface area of the heat being transferred
T0 = Temperature of the object's surface
Tenv = Temperature of the environment

Here's a good read on cooling systems The Novak Guide to Engine & Transmission Cooling for Jeeps

Alright, here's another one on me. Because finding it in the mountain of tech and training manuals I have saved on my computer gave me a headache too

All I did was ask for some help with my water pump

Crazy Sr. Respected Jeeper
Things I have learned. When your water pump leaks, the seal is gone, and a rubber band aint gonna make it feel better. A high flow pump on a stock engine / cooling system made my engines run hot. And if I can do it, I love cheap stock parts! I'm a carpenter, so I never over think anything, I just fix 
and move on. And so, I will leave you eggheads to argue amongst yourselves as to why.
