Car keeps overheating after new radiator...

I put in a new radiator and I filled it back up and followed the bleeding directions that I found on the forum and in the service manual but it's overheating. I also rented a radiator pump from autozone and I was wondering if I this is only used to test for leaks or whether this can help bleed it.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks

Sounds like it still has air in it. Not sure which instructions you used, but here are some on replacing the hoses and how to purge the air out...
