You probably introduced some air in the cooling system. Try bleeding and troubleshooting the P0108 code:

teriffic, thanks I'll give those things a try.
I'm a little confused w/ the coolant instructions tho. Drain and refill the whole thing?

Sorry, I forgot to upload the second page of the coolant bleeding procedure. Don't drain the coolant. Start at step 8 below with cold engine and heater lever in Max heat position:

Well, Ron, I thank you again for your help. Fortunately, it wasn't needed this time. For the idiot that's typing this was the culprit!
I took a closer look at everything and saw the problem. I didn't plug the map sensor back in!
Yes I'll be man enough to admit it, but I do thank you again for all the help.
A positive thing did come out of all of this tho, I know now what a map sensor and iacv do and where they are located I guess we all learn sometime.
