Start by checking you thermostat then move to the water pump. Check your oil to see if there is water in it if so you have a leaking gasket either intake or head. If you have a substantial amount of whit smoke coming from you exhaust also a bad gasket.

Check if there is visible smoke coming out of the exhaust after using your car for like an hour. If there is visible smoke your car's engine is probably leaking oil from the inside. You need to have your engine rebuilt. If the theres no visible smoke, try to check if your car is loosing water from the water reservoir really fast. Also, check if your radiator fan is still okay.

99 deville,run normal,overheats when a/c is turned on over 250 degrees ,changed thermostat and coolant sensor,still overheats.

See if the AC fan at the front of the car comes on when the AC is turned on/ It needs the extra air flow.

99 deville head gasket leak?

A head gasket leak is usually indicated (among other things) by continous overheating of the motor, and subsequent loss of coolant.
It can also be indicated by the presence of engine combustion gas bubbles in the coolant resevoir.
Ensure the coolant system has no external leaks, such as faulty hose/s, radiator etc.

Ensure motor tune or other motor mechanical condition is not the cause of overheating.
I assume the motor is actually running hot.

Check cooling fans are operating ok (as necessary when car warms up):- if not check
1) fuse,
2) relay operation,
3) heat sensor switch.

Check/replace the thermostat,
Check the coolant pressure cap is serviceable & of correct rating,
Ensure cooling system is correctly filled, bleed off any airlocks as necessary when re-filling,
Ensure radiator hose on suction side of waterpump is not collapsing at engine revs above idle (due softening),
If the motor has been severely overheated, the head gasket could be blown - look for combustion gas bubbles in the coolant resevoir.

What does a heater core do?

The heater core runs off of the cooling system, it is a small "radiator" behind the dash that sits in a box. when the heater core is full of hot coolant, it gives off heat and the blower motor pushes the hot air to the vents.

If a heater core ruptures, becomes clogged with parasites, or gets blocked in a hose (the 2 leading to the firewall under the hood on the passenger side) it causes the car to overheat, and/or leak.

my suggestion is to have the system pressure tested, and flushed if it checks out OK

My retired uncle has a 97 cadillac deville sts that runs well but after a short distance or time idling begins to overheat. He has replaced the water pump, thermostat and had the radiator and head gasket checked. Unfortunately he lives in a rural area and there is no local cadillac dealership for diagnostic repairs.
