Ok, the car is back on the road!!!! I ended up installing the freaking t-stat backwards. What a bonehead move. I thought the over heat problem was caused by not enough burping. The funny thing was, the car never hit the magical 120c. I guess a strong coldfront can be beneficial!

Now I get to drain and refill with the coolant mix...again.
