Hi just read your posting.Now can you check the inlet hoses are correctly positioned.So from the cold water tap the hose must go to the cold valve which has the letter C next to it and the hot has the letter H next to it.If you look behind the machine where the inlet hoses connect the identifying letters will be there.Please reply on how you got on and for further help.Looking forward to your reply.
There
are two possible causes of the water not stopping. First is the water
inlet valves stuck in the open position and second is the pressure
switch not tripping when the correct water level is reached. Turn off or
unplug the machine while it is filling and if the water doesn't stop,
the water inlet valve/s is/are indeed stuck in the open position.
Replacing the water inlet valve assembly should solve the problem.
But
if the water stops, the problem is the pressure switch stuck in the
empty position. Disconnect power then raise the console up and hinge it
at the rear of the machine to access the pressure switch. It is the part
with the small clear hose attached to it. Detach the hose and blow air
down into it including the pressure switch itself. Replace the pressure
switch if the problem persists.
Crankshaft Position Sensor Replacement - Removal Procedure
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. Refer to Battery Negative Cable Disconnect/Connect Procedure in Engine Electrical. 2. Raise and support the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle in General Information. 3. Remove the starter motor. Refer to Starter Motor Replacement in Engine Electrical. 4. Disconnect the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor electrical connector. 5. Remove the CKP sensor bolt (1). 6. Remove the CKP sensor (2) from the engine block: • Remove the sensor by pulling on the sensor connector. DO NOT pry on the bracket. • DO NOT rotate or twist the sensor or damage the mounting bracket if the sensor is being reused.
Installation Procedure
Important: When replacing the CKP sensor with a new sensor or reinstalling the original sensor, use the following recommended procedures: • Ensure that the CKP sensor bore is completely free of any foreign material, such as old O-ring, dirt, burrs, etc. • Ensure that the flange on the CKP sensor bore is not damaged. • Clean all the mounting surfaces before re-installing any components. • Inspect the CKP sensor and replace the sensor if any of the following conditions are present: - The bracket is damaged. - The bottom of the brass housing exhibits any damage. - Never install a sensor that has been dropped. • Lubricate the O-ring on the sensor with clean engine oil prior to installing the sensor . • Inspect all the connectors for any damaged terminals.
1. Install and fully seat the CKP sensor (2) into the engine block. Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems. 2. Install the CKP sensor bolt (1). Tighten Tighten the bolt to 9 N·m (80 lb in) 3. Ensure that the CKP sensor mounting flange is contacting the engine block. 4. Connect the CKP sensor electrical connector. 5. Install the starter motor. Refer to Starter Motor Replacement in Engine Electrical. 6. Connect the negative battery cable. Refer to Battery Negative Cable Disconnect/Connect Procedure in Engine Electrical. 7. Lower the vehicle. 8. The CKP System Variation Learn Procedure must be performed after replacing the CKP sensor. Even if the original sensor is reinstalled, the Learn Procedure must be performed. 9. Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor Replacement Removal Procedure Notice: Use care when handling the coolant sensor. Damage to the coolant sensor will affect the operation of the fuel control system. 1. Partially drain the cooling system. Refer to Draining and Filling Cooling System in Engine Cooling. 2.

Notice: Replacement components must be the correct part number for the application. Components requiring the use of the thread locking compound, lubricants, corrosion inhibitors, or sealants are identified in the service procedure. Some replacement components may come with these coatings already applied. Do not use these coatings on components unless specified. These coatings can affect the final torque, which may affect the operation of the component. Use the correct torque specification when installing components in order to avoid damage.

I hope this helps. The numbering is incorrect in the sequence but the instructions are correct.
your inlet valve is leaking, simple fix. pull the plug, turn off the water, disconnect the hoses from the back of the machine, and unscrew the housing holding the valve. remove wiring and note the correct placement. remove valve and replace.
All Models
See Figures 1 and 2
The thermostat and its built-in by-pass valve is installed on the inlet side of the water pump. Its purpose is to prevent overheating of the coolant by controlling the flow into the engine from the radiator. During warm up, the thermostat remains closed so that the coolant within the engine heats quickly and aids the warming up process.
As the coolant temperature increases, the thermostat gradually opens, allowing a supply of lower temperature coolant (from the radiator) to enter the water pump and circulate through the engine.
WARNING
A thermostat with an internal by-pass should never be removed as a countermeasure to overheating. Removing the thermostat actually makes the problem worse because more coolant bypasses the radiator, thereby reducing cooling even more.
Drain the cooling system and save the coolant for reuse.
CAUTION
When draining the coolant, keep in mind that cats and dogs are attracted by the ethylene glycol antifreeze, and are quite likely to drink any that is left in an uncovered container or in puddles on the ground. This will prove fatal in sufficient quantity. Always drain the coolant into a sealable container. Coolant should be reused unless it is contaminated or several years old.
Remove the water inlet housing and remove the thermostat. Carefully observe the positioning of the thermostat within the housing.
Fig. Fig. 1: Thermostat assembly. Prizm shown, Nova similar
Install the new thermostat in the housing, making sure it is in correctly. It is possible to install it backwards. Additionally, make certain that the air bleed valve aligns with the protrusion on the water inlet housing. Failure to observe this placement can result in poor air bleeding and possible overheating.
Fig. Fig. 2: Correct placement of the air bleed valve during thermostat replacement
Install the water inlet housing cover with a new gasket. Install the 2 hold down bolts and tighten them to 20 ft. lbs. Do not overtighten these bolts!
Refill the cooling system with coolant.
Start the engine. During the warm up period, observe the temperature gauge for normal behavior. Also during this period, check the water inlet housing area for any sign of leakage. Remember to check for leaks under both cold and hot conditions.
not many hoses to mix up did you get cam timming correct one tooth out can make difference any more than 3 teeth and it could bend valves
check for vacuum leaks depending on engine type look under inlet manifold at middle section to see if you have knocked one off
