Do not reduce the radiator level. You might have a theormostat that's stuck open.

Since you just got it, flushing the cooling system would be a good thing as well.

What was your oil pressure gauge reading?

Don't foget the thermostat.

Check the sending unit next to the oil filter. Make sure the wire is OK too.
