Just an observation. That doesn't eliminate the thermostat. Better to put it into a pan filled with cold water, with a thermometer, and raise the temp on a stove. watch for the stat to start to open and check the temp. A lot of the symptoms you describe could be caused by the stat.
Air lock is my next guess.
