Are you sure you got all the air out of the system and its full? A funnel with a radiator cap attachment is a wise investment.

If the cars not leaking, you arnt blowing large quanities of white smoke and you oil doesnt look like curled milk. Imfod is right just bleed the air out if your not sure how to do it pm me ill give you my number and walk you through it very simple.
