1991 Pontiac Grand Am overheating?

[big dawg]

I put a new water pump, thermostat, hoses, flushed the radiator. There is no water in the oil or anything. Can someone give me some serious answers.

there are a lot more things that can overheating besides the actual cooling system not working properly. If you blew the gasket for your exhaust manifold, if your exhaust has a clog in it, a bad cat. can be known to cause a car to over heat, a bad sensor, a bad seal, a crack in the block or head, Unfortunately just cleaning and repairing parts of your cooling system won't always clear up an over heating problem. Maybe you could give us a discription as to the history of the vehicle, it's recent symptoms, what you did when you did, all of that and we may be able to clear things up a bit more for you.
