Let's start by getting to know a bit more about your background. Have you ever bled brakes before? Assuming you have, then you know the importance of making sure all bleeder screws will open before starting the bleed process. And assuming you don't have an issue with the ABS system that you are trying to bleed, you just bleed the brakes like a normal vehicle. Start with the wheel furthest away from the master cylinder and move closer. So this usually means Passenger Rear, Driver's Rear, Passenger Front, Driver's Front. I prefer to use a length of clear tubing that fits the bleeder screw, then install a check valve, followed by another length of clear tubing in to a clear jar. The check valve is very effective at keeping air from entering the lines so that you can do 1-person bleeding without getting a sore hand from using a vacuum pump.
As a life long cold sore sufferer, I can tell you that you can't. It's one of the 1st stages of a cold sore. The swelling does go away after 2-3 days but it then transitions to a cluster of blisters which soon burst open and it goes on and on for 2 wks til it heals. if u can catch it when you only feel that early symptom, itch or tingle, apply Cold Sores Begone Stick and it stops the cold sore before it starts. Look online for it.
If brakes are mushy then you still have air in the lines.Did you bleed all 4 wheels?have wife push brake pedal down once and hold then bleed hold down one and bleed and so on if this has a quick takeup master cylinder pumping 3 or 4 times then bleed wont work
have buddy/wife pump brakes and hold loosen bleeder screw in caliper when steady stream of fluid with no splats comes out recheck pedal feel remember to keep fluid topped off when bleeding
Sounds like the thermostat has stayed closed you will need to change it as it will blow the head gasket, very common on this model.
Also when you bled it though you may have left some air in the system this would also stop the heating working, they can be a pain to bleed through keep sqeezing the water hoses as you are bleeding it through and do not bleed it from the lower part of the radiator as it will be hard to get the air out as air will stay at the top, you should bleed from the top.
If it is a hydraulic clutch, find the reservoir and top it up with fluid and then you will have to find the bleeder screw and bleed the clutch. It is the same process as bleeding brakes. Not sure on these vehicles where the bleed screw is but in most cases it is on the transmission. It can be easily found if you follow the line from the clutch master cylinder to the transmission it should be close to where the line goes into the transmission.
Did you bleed air out good after thermostat change, as well as have heater on while refilling the system? If not, leave cap off, run from cold and refill as necessary, with heater on, and if you have a bleed screw, re-bleed system, after heater running and engine warms up.
