My car keeps overheating after I replace the termostat, water pump, headgaskets, radiator, temperature censor. Every time the temperature goes up to 3/4 the fan comes on and it goes back down but then it goes up again. It also goes down every time the revolutions go up to 3000 rpm

Try this before you blow the gasket again

BLEEDING COOLING SYSTEM:

Always bleed air from cooling system after replacing coolant. Set heater for maximum heat. Remove radiator cap. Loosen drain plug and remove drain bolt (if equipped) from engine block. Drain coolant reservoir. Fill coolant reservoir to MAX mark with 50/50 water-coolant mixture. Loosen bleed bolt and fill radiator up to base of filler neck. Close bleed bolt when coolant flows out without bubbles. Tighten bleed bolt. With radiator cap removed, start and operate engine to normal operating temperature. Add coolant if necessary and check for leaks.
