Is this the car that blew a welsh plug... and had something going on with the bell housing?
Anyway.... sounds like a thermo problem to me. I know you've calibrated it and all that jazz, but it sounds highly suspicous the way it goes high or low and never sits nicely in the middle. It sounds like the thermostat is sticking. Take it out and dump it into some cool water in a saucepan on the stove. Use a good thermometer and crank up the heat and see if it opens properly. Then cool the water down and see if it closes properly. Check the temp with factory specs (or with whatever specs you have defined for your engine) to see if it operates accordingly.
If it works fine, then I'd be looking at the thermo switch for the fans to see if they're coming on and off according to specs.
I'm assuming the engine is fine and runs well. No BHG or other thing which maybe causing some issues with the motor?
