Some questions; Does the temperature get to ~180 F? Does it say there? Does it rise and/or fall when the heater is activated?
I think the heat wasn't as good as it should be before I did the water pump.

If I had an air pocket wouldn't the heat be intermittent? Start off hot then go cool for a bit then back to hot?
