Duh I went back and reread the original message where it very plainly
says "NEW THERMOSTAT." TWD clearly read it a little more carefully.
A bad out of the box new thermostat is not unheard of, but the other
possibilities TWD gives are more likely, particularly air in the system.
The easiest way to check this is with a cooling system pressure tester
which any shop should have. A system full of water will pump up to
15# in a few strokes of the pump, like 5-10, because water does not
compress. If there is air in the system it will compress and much more pumping will be necessary to build to the same pressure. It may be necessary to pinch or plug the line to the overflow bottle if the cap on it leaks as they tend to do. K
