I would have to agree also at this point. If you have bled the T housing bolt for air pockets and still having problems, it's more than likely a head gasket problem AGAIN. The last thing I would check is the waterpump for circulation. With all that you described, I would say the waterpump is fine but it's worth a shot. I have a 95 3.8 as well and yes, my head gasket has been replaced before so it is a known problems with 3.8's. If you have the knowlege to do it yourself, I would recommend that as it will be a whole lot cheaper. If you have shop do it, very expensive. Good Luck! Enjoy!
