Install it correctly? Correct side and burp nipple up? All air out of system? Correct OEM thermostat? Not aftermarket. No clogged passageways in entire cooling system?

Bleed air from system like this remove cap from overflow tank fill with antifreeze to full mark leave cap off and start vehicle and let idle you will notice level in tank start to rise this is normal once thermostat starts to open level level in tank will drop add more antifreeze to full mark then put cap back on.
