If air got in the system, you will have to bleed it.

I've not worked with enough clutches to tell you, but chiltons and haynes should have info. I don't know how Ford clutches are setup, but there should be a bleed valve on the slave cylinder down near the transmission. Bleed is similar to brake bleeding.
