okay,, assuming you have a gas model with the thermostat mounted on the front edge of the intake manifold... That model MUST HAVE a tiny bleed hole in the thermostat flange, or the hot water will never get close enough to the thermostat to open. You can either buy a thermostat with the tiny bleed hole or drill one your self. Must in the flange close enough to the center that it will flow a tiny bit of water, even when the thermostat is closed,, this way the water movement will allow hot water to get near the thermostat, and then open it. If the hole is to near the edge, the housing will cover it, and not let the tiny bit of water flow through. This hole will also allow you to bleed all the air out and get the water next to the thermostat. Some models are more sensitive to this, and the gas model 3cy engine is EXTREMELY sensitive to this.
