Accepted Answer

If the car is still overheating it could be caused by the cooling fans not comming on, clogged cooling passage/radiator, thermostat, or headgasket. Remove the thermostat to see if problems stops and make sure cooling fans are comming on, if everything is good up to this point you need to have your headgaskets replaced. You can go to your local parts store and buy a chemical tester to check for exhaust gas in the coolant. If there is exhaust gas in the coolant this means the heagasket is leaking and needs to be replaced. Let me know if you have questions or if there is anything else I can do to help. Thanks

If you have exhaust gas in the coolant you either have a headgasket problem or head problem. Have heads inspected, if they look good replace the headgaskets. Let me know if you have questions, thanks.
