The clutch fan does spin by hand with minimal resistance, and I know it turns well rven at idle so I doubt the fan is the issue, but Im sure some wd40 and cleaning wouldnt hurt!

Assuming that you mean distilled water MIXED 50%/50% with the appropriate antifreeze/coolant? (see owners manual)

OEM thermostat is likely a 195 as are most vehicles now. So 200 would be about normal operating temperature. When climbing a hill you may see about 210 or so at which point the clutch fan should start to engage causing a loud roaring sound. If this does not happen i would suspect a bad fan clutch.

Using deionized, RO (reverse osmosis) or, bottled drinking water is also fine as long as it is mixed with the appropriate coolant.
Stay with only distilled water, bottled water can have minerals and DI or RO can have contaminants if not handled perfectly.
Oh please. So it's good enough to drink, (actually preferred) but not good enough to put in your radiator. Yeah right. Where did you take your chemistry classes? That's what I thought.
What do you think happens to distilled water when it comes in contact with common metals found in any cooling system? (rhetorical question) You need not answer.
