Yeah my blazer has never gotten close to the 210 mark except one time when it was almost 90 outside and it was idleling for over an hour. So could that be the thermostat sticking open? And about the blinkers, so that sounds like the blinker relay under the dash?

RE: Blinker problems
DexCool has higher acid levels, this is what causes the clogging over time. It starts to turn into a SOLID. And when this happens the acid levels become like battery acid to your engine and cooling system. But GM will not recall it and many other MFG's are starting to use it due to it shortens the life of your engine and cooling system. I about cried when I saw the New 2007 Dodge Charger w/ a sweet 440 Hemi interceptor with that rotten DEXCOOL in it. Sad when they remake a classic and just trash it with junk like Dexcool. Even the Dealership owner said that his personal one he changed it out due to he did not want to trash themotor w/ that junk. That has to tell you something about Dexcool if a MFG's recomended fluid gets replaced by a 40+ yr mechanic and owner of a dealership.
