Engine Cooling problem
1996 Ford Thunderbird 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 77k miles

The main problem i'm having right now is that my 96 Thunderbird keeps overheating badly, and I don't know why. So far i've replaced the water pump, changed the thermostat, replaced the radiator hose and cap and it's still red lining into the H. Theres no leakage and the water's not going into the oil but still I can't seem to pin point the location of the problem; I am still flushing the radiator though, see if that helps.
And my other problem is that the car hesitates when taking off of a red light. I wanted to see if anyone haves an answer for that too.

Pressure test it to see if it holds pressure.
