Another 04 overheating

[BjBnet]

Just happened today while I was doing about 40mph.
No heat in cabin.

Replaced the cap, still the same. I have a new pump and t-stat with me now but from reading alot of the similar posts I'd like to t-shoot a bit more if I can.

There's no air in the system. I haven't done anything to it since last summer and I use it everyday.

While idling, if I manually prime the lower hose I suddenly get a bit of heat in the cabin, and the lower hose is cold to the touch.

If you were to guess, would you say t-stat or w/p? I think if it was the t-stat there wouldn't be a difference in temp if I primed it...right? sounds like it's not circulating right? Thanks

Ive replaced alot of those waterpumps for the impellers braking and not circulating the water

I replaced it less than 2 years ago. I guess I'll take it off and check it out. It isn't noisy or anything like the original was when it went.

211,000kms

Ok, not in so much of a worry yet then. LOL.
