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.

You could have an external leak or it could be burning it through a blown head gasket which is very likely if it has been overheated that badly. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
