I'm pretty sure that's the issue. I sourced the water pump and thermostat from eBay. I think I paid $80 for the water pump and $55 for the thermostat. Lesson learned. Both eBay vendors had good ratings, but I guess that can be very subjective. Thermostat guy did give me a full store credit, but I doubt I'll use it. Water pump vendor offered a full refund, but I didn't have the time to pull it have him receive with within the 10 days allowed.

Like I said, lesson learned. Should have done some more research here on this forum before ordering those items.
