Engine Cooling problem
1992 Chevy Cavalier 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

We have changed the thermostat, water pump, heater core, tensioner that runs the water pump, took the head off to see that there is no cracks leaks of warps, replacing the gasket. It still overheats, within a mile the gauge is in the red. We are stumped as to what to do next. It is a 92 chevy cavalier, with a 4 cyclinder engine. We have flushed the radiater twice, it seems like the water just isn't circulating thru the block.

Did you bleed the cooling system. This will cause an overheating problem.

There is no place to bleed the cooling system, checked on the waterpump, and thermostate.
And yes the fan is working properly. I am beginning to wonder if there is a clog somewhere but not sure how to go about finding it. Thanks for all your ideas.I really need help on this one!
