recently my car started over heating, i have replaced the radiator and the thermostat. i also tested the ect sensor just in case i was getting false readings but that seems to be fine. im not dripping coolant at all and have checked my engine for possible coolant in the oil but none has shown, im getting to the point where i am becoming frustrated and dont want to work on it anymore. is there anything you suggest to check.

have a leak down test done to make sure you did not damage the head gasket from the overheating
