As you have found, this is a hard one. You could have a bad gauge and or sender. You easily could have a faulty new thermostat. New doesn't mean good. There is an arrow on the thermostat that has to be clocked a certain direction. The other thing is that more than one degree of thermostat is available for your engine. Are you sure that you have the correct one.?
