What temp thermostat did you install? Did you get all the air out of the cooling system?

Was it installed correctly?

It could be that you got a bad unit from the box.

If you have an open cooling system (radiator has cap), Top off the radiator, turn the heat all the way up, start engine let idle with cap off, watch level in radiator, fill as needed, youll see a noticble, drop when the thermostat opens top off radiator, overflow bottle, replace cap.

If you have access to the funnel that screws onto the rad cap it'll make the process easier and less messy.
