Good job, you deserve a beer!

When you put the new ECT in verify the wiring is good - which is probably the root cause of the problem.

And be careful with the T40 bolt on the thermostat, loosen the front a single turn, then push down hard to get the rear bolt off. You will need to dump about 1 quart of antifreeze into a clean container and reuse it when finished.
