it is hard to say without seeing the vehicle but check the coolant. make sure its not contaminated. (it should be nice bright green) if you replace the spark plugs make sure you replace them with plugs with the right heat range. also listen to the way your transmission is shifting make sure that is not slipping.

3 weeks ago you found the upper radiator hose almost completely squeezed in on itself so you replaced the thermostat and upper hose!Also, the cooling system has been flushed and refilled and the cap has been replaced! Could be a partially plugged radiator. Flushing will not always take care of this. I would check the thermostat in a pot of water and thermometer prior to install. I have installed faulty new thermostats. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. thermostat in upside down ? spring should be in the block dying fuel pump
