first i would completely flush cooling system with a prestone flush kit, second make sure coolant overflow tank is at proper cold level, very important, third fill through bleed valve on thermostat housing until coolant comes out, fourth fill through bleed valve above waterpump, the radiator cap is on during this procedure, use 50-50 antifreeze mix, you can go a step further and loosen small bleed nuts on top of bleed screw run engine and wait for solid coolant to flow out, retighten and that should keep your engine running cooler

Your 1998 seems to run hotter in the winter now than in the summer just past--is that a computer control issue or do you have a problem that will show up later?
Engine temperature is controlled by the thermostat. An engine can often run hotter if the thermostat has started to fail or if the radiator is partially blocked. The computer is not involved in temperature control. Have the rad and cooling system flushed and change the thermostat at the same time. Have the heater core pressure tested and flushed out.

What temperature thermostat should be used on a 350 Chevy?
It's dependant on what you want. If you live in a hotter climate, select a lower temperature thermostat; that causes the thermostat to open sooner, keeping the engine a little cooler... hopefully. If you live in a climate that is either normally cooler or seasonably cooler, a hotter thermostat can help the heater work better. A hotter thermostat has been demonstrated to be SLIGHTLY (almost insignificantly) at helping the engine run more efficietly.

What might be wrong with an 88 pickup with a new 305 that blows out coils and has an intermittent stutter in the idle?
Got it! Repairman put a scanner on the engine and found the clutch fan wasn't disengaging and the thermostat was too cold. This, in addition to the old-style, single-wire O2 sensor being so slow, the truck was getting conflicting reports from the sensors. Installed a hotter thermostat, replaced the O2 sensor and replaced the clutch fan. We're rocking now!
