Ron has the flow pattern right. If by chance you have the incorrect waterpump (by application) the impeller may be spinning backwards (serpentine belt application). Otherwize if you are confident that all components are correct begin looking for head gasket leaks by pressurizing the cooling system with a hand pump and see if retains pressure.

Good luck
