Yeah man sounds I'm it. Unfiltered opinion, but you really f**ked yourself with that stop leak stuff. You're going to have to do multiple flushes to get that crap out. Remove the aux tank and really get that crap out.


I'd also recommend removing your radiator and getting it boiled out at a radiator shop. You might be able to get away with repeated flushing, but it sounds like you have a serious clogging issue on several parts of the coolant system .


As harv has said: flush flush flush. Get some engine coolant flush stuff and run it in your engine for a hundred miles using distilled water. Then flush it out and keep flushing .



Double check your thermostat and water pump.



Good luck!
