Thanks for the responses! While I was waiting for responses, I decided to take out the thermostat that I had just put it and try running without it. That worked. So either I installed the new thermostat incorrectly, or it does not work properly. I guess it could also (still) be a temp gauge / wiring harness problem - but it seems strange to me that the gauge was going up the longer the engine runs, and still goes up to mid-green when running without the thermostat.
I also check airflow from intake, through filter, past sensor, and on through hose - all seems ok. Guessing sensor (or wiring harness) bad there, too.
Running ok for now, so figuring this out will be a winter project when I get my fall chores done.
