Just follow the procedure in the right order. Fill the clutch reservoir on the master cylinder to the max and leave the lid loose. Fit a transparent plastic pipe on the bleed nipple on the clutch slave cylinder bleed nipple. Put the other end of the pipe into a jar to catch the waste fluid. Put some thick grease around the base threads of the bleed nipple, this stops air being sucked in via the threads whne the nipple is slackened off. Loosen the bleed nipple by 1/3 of a turn. Have your mate slowly depress the clutch peddle. When he has reached maximum travel have him hold it there while you turn the bleed nipple a third turn back to tight. Have your mate release the clutch peddle, clutch fluid from the master reservoir should now fill the the master cylinder. Have you mate press the peddle a quarter way and then release the bleed nipple a 1/3 of a turn. Have your mate depress the clutch peddle all the way to maximum travel. Again tighten off the bleed nipple before releasing the clutch peddle. Keep doing this process until no more air bubbles can be seen in the fluid in the pipe attached to the bled nipple. Every four cycles or so check on the fluid level in the master reservoir and keep topped up with fresh fluid. When everything completed tighten the bleed nipple, it is not necessary to tighten the hell out of it as at some point you may need to do this again. Wipe everything down pump the clutch peddle a few times to be sure of correct operation and no leaks.
Undue two bolts on thermostat housing - remove thermostat - clean both mating surfaces - put in place new gasket (or RTV gasket material) put in new thermostat (spring down) and replace bolts. Do not over tighten and torque down each bolt alternately using approx the same force you used to remove them.
perhaps there is a air leak at the mating surface. if you have a bottle of propane, use it to ckeck for leaks around the gasket/mating surface. start the engine. open the valve on the bottle DO NT LIGHT direct the gas around the mating surface. if the r's go up you have a leak. it is possible that since this is new, the computer was used to the old one and needs time to adjust
