Whatever the "MYTH" you should never run your motor without the thermostat.If your motor isw running steady at 210 your problem will most likely be solved by switching to lower temp thermostat.I have run a 190 thermostat and two puller fans for 20 years and my car has always run steady at 190. Good luck.Also a lot of Mercedes run at 215 as a normal operating temp with no ill effect.
