One thing I forgot: the little U-tube between the head and water pump.
It could be plugged and not allowing the air to vent from the pump. I
had this happen on my 300D. Just remove it and clean it out with a wire
or some such.

Oh, and getting the air bubble out of the head can be tricky.
I backfill the block through the upper radiator hose.  Makes
a big difference.
