Default Jeep running problems

Ok so this started to happen either when i threw a bottle of seafoam in my jeep or changed the oil. but what is happening is when my jeep gets up to 210 with the temp, if i cut it off and try and run it. It acts like its flooding or something. I'm also running 20w 50 i think. i changed just to see what it would do. it ran with 10w 30 so thats just a idea. i'm gonna put more seafoam in there again after i change it so maybe thats it. Just wanted to see if anyone has had this problem. I also have 280,000 miles on my baby.



Another question is, It takes my jeep 15 mins to get up to 210 with temp when at a red light or stuck somewhere after driving my jeep some. is this running hot? i haven't had it get over 220 before but i just wanna no. I'm thinking of replacing my main fan but don't wanna if i don't need to. But throw me some feed back so i can no
