Did you purge the cooling system from the air pockets when you refilled it with coolant? If not here is how to do that... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUpXgAJ1gjU

Did you verify the new thermostat opens? Put it in a pan with water and bring it to a boil, it should open prior to the boiling point. Sometimes you can get a dud so it's best to test them first. Don

    Only have to drive about ten miles. The farther/longer I drive, the more it smokes. I only see it when I turn the car off but can smell it when idling...like going through a drive-thru.
