My cars been running Water Weter for several years and I just flushed my coolant and added it in with the new once again. You can tell it works, my car runs at ALL times in the "N" area of the guage. It has never budged in these last many years, no matter how many traffic jam crawls or highway cruises, or city driving with A/C on I do. Take that thermo back, keep the stock one til it dies, and add some Redline Water Weter (~$5.50).

If you haven't flushed the coolant.. get it done NOW because that Miami heat will play a toll on your cooling system. (I beleive you said you DID have it done). You will basically want to remove the amount of coolant you add in with the water wetter (not much, maybe 2 ounces) so that you keep the dilusion that redline suggests.
