take out the stat and put it in a boiling pot of water on the stove, you will see the stat open up right before your eyes. also the newer stats are fail safe, when they fail, they go into the open mode, thus not over heating the engine and causing damage, another thing to check on the radiator, run the truck upto temp, check the bottom rad hose and see if it is hot, if it is, than the system is circulating
