Installed one today and now the truck runs 10 to 20 degrees cooler but also runs 10 to 20 degrees warmer. Anyone else had this problem?

Warmer than the stock t-stat.

What else can i tell youWith the stock t-stat the guage never got above 210. Now with the 160* it runs about 190* to 200* but has climbed up to 225* to 230*. I'll try purging the system again tomorow might still have a air pocket in it.
