There are two coolant sensors, one for the dash gauge, and one for the engine computer. The one that matters is the ECT, engine coolant temp sensor for the ECU. That is the one that tells the fans when to come on. Can you confirm the fans are turning on when engine is hot? Also, how did you check the head gasket? Block Tester? Compression test?
