nothing comes out after 10-20 minutes you have any thoughts on it would be grateful thanks again for your help,thinking maybe I put the thermostat in wrong that would be a real brainer.

Well, perhaps you have an air leak into your system somehow then. Is your radiator cap good? Might have to get your system pressure tested to see if it has a leak anywhere?
