Have you tried taking the thermostat out?

I don't recall if you've done a flush with a hose.

Maybe there is a buildup / blockage somewhere that can be flushed out with a hose.



Wish I could post that link without it opening up.
Verrrry interesting! What a coincidence!

The car I had my problem with was a similar Toyota Celica of that vintage (late '80's). I never thought to flush the engine block. Everyone knows about flushing the radiator, but we don't think of having a clogged block.
