Ok so my waterpump was leaking yesterday and getting slightly hotter than 210. So I figured if I was going to replaced the waterpump (with a bran new one) I may as well replace the thermostat as well and do it right.
Well last night I spent all night and replaced both on my car Ive had less than 3 weeks. and it seems like we did a good job as it's not leaking and we made sure to get the hoses right.
Now it's getting hotter than 210!! and if I let it it keeps climbing.
Any ideas? The car just hit 60,000
has a MS3 cam with cat delete y pipe and slp loudmouth 2 catback.

OK, went back out there after letting it cool off and it took a whole bunch of water! after finishing off my dexacool jug.
never went above 210 now, so Im gonna let it cool off and then add more water.
