Moved to correct section. Check your thermostat out should open at around 75-85 degrees. Hold the top pupe from cold and wait untill it gets hot. If its not getting hot in that temp range it needs repacing, check coolant, check rad has all its fins.

If you're running at 110 I would guess you've goosed your Head gasket already, they should run at 83 when happy and certainly not much above 90, fans kick in at 92 or there abouts.
