Temp reads high after tcb bypass 200

I flushed the coolant, replaced radiator hoses and thermostat (though it's a Murray brand w/o the bleeder pin thing), I also put on the jumper wire between pins 1 & 3 where the temp compensator board was installed.

Once warmed up, within 7 to 10 min, the temp gauge is at 10:00, just below the red.

I'm assuming this is not normal correct?

Once I get the car back tonight I'll check the wire to temp sensor.

Is there a way to check the water pump?

The upper radiator hose gets very hot, lower hose hot at pump and eventually gets warm at radiator.

I believe it's getting flow through radiator so am wondering about the pump.

Thanks for your insights.

Mike
