If you go back and read this whole thing as someone who is not you, it started with the clutch replacement...
Why was your clutch slipping? 20,000 miles is not dead clutch territory. And if his solution to an overheating problem was to adjust the valves and give you a new spark plug, then he doesn't know what he is doing - which in turn means you have no idea what was done when the clutch was unnecessarily replaced. Get a new mechanic.
