    Did you remove air from the system when you changed the thermostat? Sounds like you have air trapped in the system that needs to be removed.

    You can take it in to a radiator shop and have them test for exhaust gasses in the radiator fluid. At least rule it out if not it wont be a cheap fix!

    Burp the cooling system first, then replace your radiator cap. If the cap is bad, it will allow the overflow bottle to become a pressurized part of your cooling system instead of just an overflow.
    Always start simple and go from there.
