over heating problems... need help

my car overheats still and i replaced

-waterpump
-thermostat
-changed radiator
-did a radiator flush
-bled out the air from the radiator
-clutch fan and electric fan both works too...
-cant be the temperature sensor because it really is over heating due to oil burning
-i also did oil change to see if it would help... no results

i was wondering if a fan shroud really helps because i dont have one... tried going junkyards and everything ebay... still couldnt find one! if anyone has a spare ill buy it... i have a 91 s13 se fastback

I went through the same thing. I have a cracked cylinder head and it causes overheating. I hope this isn't your problem but it is possible.

Yeah, get that checked out asap. Thats exactly what happened to me and I ended up just trying to find a replacement motor.

Take it to a shop and have them perform a "leakdown" test...
