A couple of questions. Did your install the rubber grommet on the new thermostat? I believe it would leak if you didn't. Did you install the new thermostat with the jiggle pin in the correct position? If you did not, that could be the problem. Instructions that come with a new thermostat give the info you need on how to install a replacement thermostat. And, as can happen, new items CAN be bad!
